It's hard to miss the freestanding and elegant peak of Mt. Kirkjufell (Church Mountain). Rising above the town with its steep green slopes it's easy to imagine where the name comes from. The mountain came greatly known after playing a role in the Netflix series, Game of Thrones making Mt. Kirkjufell steeling the thunder from Snæfellsjökull glacier itself.
A few hundred meters from the mountain is the shy but beautiful waterfall, carrying the same name as the peak. The waterfall is fed with glacial waters coming from Snæfellsjökull glacier. The walking path leads visitors around the area and gives a great opportunity to take beautiful pictures of the fall with majestic Mt Kirkjufell in the background. Kirkjufellsfoss has become one of the most popular sites to visit by photographers for its stunning form and beauty.
The coast at Djúpalónssandur is often referred to as the Black Lava Pearl Beach. It's an arched-shaped bay with lava cliffs and black basalt pebbles and sand, a former location of a fishing village. Fascinating signs of this former fishing times are four ancient lifting stones that were used to test the strength of fishermen, waiting for you to try them out. Preserving history and creating a beautiful contrast on the beach are the rusty pieces of iron that are left scattered around the area and belong to an English trawler that shipwrecked on the shore in 1948.
