Troll Peninsula
Troll Peninsula or Trollaskagi is a rugged, mountainous region tucked between the impressive Skagafjörður and Eyjafjörður fjords. Home to several peaks such as Kerling, the peninsula located in northern Iceland is dotted with numerous valleys and gushing rivers. Sparsely populated townships that welcome visitors with open arms paint a picture of serenity. The museums are perfect for an immersive experience related to the region’s history while active recreational pursuits such as hiking, skiing, and horse riding await the adventurous. From trendy cafes to elegant restaurants, there are plenty of options offering authentic local cuisine alongside popular international favorites. The aroma of artisanal chocolates and freshly-baked cakes permeates the air, especially in the mid-morning.
