Itinerary description

Hafursfell is one of those mountains that look a lot steeper than they really are. It's not very high at 759 metres and the distance (we did a traverse) is only about 8 kilometres (we ended up having to walk back to the car which added another 6 km!). I include photos showing the approximate route we followed.

A good picukp point right on the highway

Start

This is where we started our hike - on the correct side of the river.

Summit

Not very dramatic, just a mossy piece of flat ground. In good weather I am sure the view would be fantastic
