The North of Iceland A true natural paradise OUTDOORS 2022
18
The north of Iceland is a true natural paradise, offering a multitude of adventurous activities, attracting people of all ages. From the country’s largest geothermal fields to beautiful islands exuding folklore and one of Iceland’s most popular skiing resorts, the north of Iceland offers a myriad of possibilities for outdoor recreation. Akureyri is the centre of culture, education and leisure activities in north Iceland. The town is by far the largest outside the Reykjavík capital area. We also recommend going on organized excursions or outdoor activity tours taking you from town to town, out to the islands or into the highlands – allowing you the chance to see the magnificent landscape the north has to offer. Nearly every area has an outdoor swimming pool, and facilities for tourists are top-notch.
