Seljalandsfoss, Hvolsvollur, Iceland Seljalandsfoss originates from a large glacier but has a fairly narrow cascade. Even so, on a sunny day the falling water catches the light beautifully and in the winter, the icicles all around are a sight to see. The best part? You can walk around the whole waterfall, underneath the cliffs from which the waterfall cascades. 50 minutes
Skogafoss, Skogar, Iceland Skógafoss is a 60 meter (200ft) waterfall situated right next to the highway. It empties into a river of the same name, where char and salmon can be fished for in the summer. It’s possible to walk right up to the booming waterfall, as long as you don’t mind getting a bit wet. An alternative is walking up a staircase to gaze at the waterfall from above, keeping an eye out for some local birds while you’re at it. 50 minutes
Solheimajokull Glacier, Vik, Iceland This glacier spawns from the fourth largest glacier in Iceland but it is one of the most easily accessible glaciers. This glacier outlet spawns 8×2 kilometers (5×1 miles) but has been slowly shrinking for some years now. Underneath this area is Katla, one of Iceland’s most infamous volcanoes. The hike from the parking lot takes about 15-20 minutes but is worth the while as you will get an up close view of the glacier. 50 minutes
Dyrholaey, Vik, Iceland This peninsula reaches 120 meters (393 feet) off the coast and into the sea, featuring a swarm of different birdlife and the infamous arch. Centuries of erosion have dug into the rock, creating a giant arch over the sea. Hence the name of the peninsula, translated to Door Hill Island. From May until September, the Atlantic Puffin can be spotted. 50 minutes
Black Sand Beach, Vik, Iceland Stretching out from Dyrhólaey peninsula is the world famous black-sand beach. Of note are the rocky sea stacks sitting off the shoreline, presumed to have once been trolls that turned to stone. The vibrant array of birds can also be found here, nestling in the cliffs along the beach and flying out to the ocean for a snack.
The beautiful roaring waves of the beach have tempted many to get close, so look out for the sneaker waves as fatal accidents have occured here. 50 minutes

Pálmar was kind, accommodating, personable, funny and timed our adventure perfectly! He was also considerate of our budget for our meals and snacks. Not to mention his patience for my athletic conditioning (haha)! Pálmar gave us great insights for the next leg of our trip!
I highly recommend him and feel like we made a friend!
