On Snæfellsnes peninsula, looking east toward the main island

Previous page Back to the top... Next page

The Snæfellsnes peninsula stretches out west 100km into the Atlantic from the body of Iceland, with mountains running down the center and a plains on the south side, where this shot was taken. After climbing Esja, I have until midnight to make it to a reserved room at Arnarstapi, in the shadow of the dormant volcano Snæfell. The better weather on the south plain makes for less overcast views.
