Saxhóll Crater is an excellent way to experience the beauty and awe of Iceland. Located on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Saxhóll is 100 meters high and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and lava fields. It is an ideal sightseeing spot for those that do not want to hike too far and has a variety of walking paths and steps. For the adventurous, there are tours available for Vatnshellir Cave, Northern Lights Hunting, and a self-drive tour of a unique ice cave. Not far from Saxhóll are Skarðsvík Beach, Hellissandur, and Svodufoss Waterfall – so make sure to explore all the beauty in the area!
