Scenic Journey Through the Westfjords

If you have only a day or a few hours in Ísafjörður, this is the ideal tour. After departure, we travel through the Vestfjarðagöng tunnel and continue past charming fishing villages, majestic fjords, and towering mountains. The drive itself is an unforgettable introduction to the raw beauty of the Westfjords.

Dynjandi Waterfall

Our highlight is the spectacular Dynjandi Waterfall, the crown jewel of the region. From the parking area, enjoy a leisurely 20-minute walk along marked trails, passing several smaller waterfalls before reaching the main cascade. Dynjandi, meaning “thunderous” in Icelandic, lives up to its name with its powerful flow.

The waterfall is 30 meters wide at the top and fans out to 60 meters at the base, resembling a shimmering bridal veil. Whether viewed from afar or up close, its sheer size and beauty are awe-inspiring.

Gemlufell Traditional Icelandic Farm

After exploring Dynjandi, we stop at Gemlufell Farm, a working Icelandic farm nestled on the shores of Dýrafjörður. Guests are welcomed with complimentary tea, coffee, and a slice of Hjónabandssæla, the traditional “Happy Marriage” rhubarb and oat cake. This authentic experience offers a glimpse into rural Icelandic life.
