Saxhóll is a volcanic crater about 100 metres high on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, which was formed more than 3 000 years ago. Thanks to a metal staircase, the climb to the top is easy and almost anyone can make it – the reward is a panoramic view of the lava fields, the coastline and the majestic Snæfellsjökull glacier in the distance.
The crater is a great stop on a tour of western Iceland and shows how dramatic and raw the Icelandic volcanic landscape can be. It doesn’t take more than 30 minutes to visit Saxhóll, but the experience and views are among those that will remain in your memory.
We’ll be happy to create a personalized itinerary.
