Place description

Translated as stone bridge, it is a rock formation on the coast of western Iceland, in the town of Arnarstapi. It is an inconspicuous place at first sight, but it is extremely photogenic. Especially if you dare to put your camera or phone on a tripod (or a friend’s) and head up the narrow “alley” on this natural phenomenon. In fact, the bridge is located on the very edge of the cliff, where you have only a few centimeters on each side to a large abyss into the cold sea water.

Not far from here is Gatklettur, a similar natural “structure” that resembles a bridge. However, this stone bridge is more accessible.
