Overview

The quiet corner of Iceland, where roads curl around deep fjords and you can drive for an hour without meeting another car.

We start on the Snæfellsnes peninsula before heading north into the Westfjords. Expect bird cliffs full of puffins, remote hot pots, seafood suppers and some of the most dramatic coastline in Europe.
