As far as you can get from the country’s capital, Iceland’s impressively varied and sparsely populated east doesn’t announce itself as loudly as other parts of the country, preferring subtle charms over big-ticket attractions. The spectacular fjords, scenic hiking trails, fascinating geology (including an abundance of stones and minerals) and friendly villages of the east are some of Ice-land’s unsung treasures.
Coverage includes: Egilsstaðir, Lagarfljót, Snæfell Area, The Eastfjords, Borgarfjörður Eystri (Bakkagerði) & around, Seyðisfjörður & around, Mjóifjörður, Reyðarfjörður, Eskifjörður, Neskaupstaður (Norðfjörður), Fáskrúðsfjörður, Stöðvarfjörður, Breiðdalur, Breiðdalsvík, Berufjörður, and Djúpivogur.
