Message from Elisa in Iceland

Naustahvilft, known as the Troll Seat, is an impressive mountain landscape located in the town of Ísafjörður. According to legend, there was once a troll who had to hurry home before the morning sun turned her to stone. She ran fast and got back early, so she sat and rested with her aching feet in the fjord. What was left was the peninsula of Ísafjörður town between her feet, the deep harbour where her feet had been, and the “seat” where her backside had been.

It's a short but challenging hike to the top of the seat.
