Sightseeing

Message from Dani Guindo

Einhyrningur Mountain, located in the southern highlands of Iceland, is known for its unicorn-shaped silhouette and stunning views of nearby glaciers. Standing at just 750 meters tall, this mountain is a popular spot for visitors to admire its unique shape carved out by volcanic activity. Legend has it that Norse explorer Erik the Red once resided near the mountain, adding to its mysterious charm. Don't forget your 4x4 car to navigate the mountain road and enjoy the scenic drive along Markarfljót River to reach Einhyrningur Mountain.
