A hidden jewel.
Most beautiful place!
This was such a beautiful spot to see at sunrise. The waves, the beach, the cliff edge, the grave, all well worth the hike. Be cautious, it's a short hike but a steep one.
Views over the sand plains.
Steep and rather difficult trail up.
Decent parking area.
Pretty bad gravel road to the parking area.
Great hike with beautiful views
Hjörleifshöfði is a good place to stop on the Ring Road in Iceland. The black sand south of the big rock / mountain is a fascinating an peaceful place. Shortly after you turn you will reach a small parking lot where you also find a path to the top of Hjörleifshöfði and a picnic area.
My paradise ♥
