Wildlife
This is a stunning spot if you like pretty views and unique birds.
The hike takes about 30-45 minutes. The first part you will be attacked by arctic terns, so maybe bring your hiking sticks to keep up in the air (that way the highest point is not your head, but the stick and they will attack that). After that you will cross a very rocky beach. When you've crossed that [art you'll get to a small hill and not long after that you will see two sea stacks teeming with birdlife.
There you can enjoy the view over one of the two Northern Gannets colonies in Iceland.
If you walk a little further you will see a lighthouse and behind that there is also a puffins colony on the cliffs behind the lighthouse.
