Stay a few days in Akureyri, the capital of the North with a population of about 18.000 being the largest town outside the greater Reykjavik area, it is a centre of education, culture, commerce and services for North Iceland.
The towns’ old part with wooden houses is particularly charming when snow has covered the ground. Just a short distance away you can find Mt.Hlíðarfjall above the town boasting the best skiing area in the country, offering good slopes for alpine skiing and treks for cross-country skiers (weather permitting;  November-April).
Not far away from the town, you can discover some of the most beautiful natural sights, and these are particularly fascinating to visit during winter.

  • Panoramic winter views of North Iceland
  • Chance for skiing at Mt.Hlíðarfjall
  • Goðafoss waterfall
  • Lake Mývatn
  • Volcanoes and lava fields
