Excursion Chasing waterfalls - nature hike tour at Seydisfjordur

This scenic hike explores Vestdalur Valley, renowned for waterfalls, meadows, wetlands, and mountains, with a history of human settlement over a thousand years. Starting near Seyðisfjörður, we visit the abandoned town of Vestdalseyri, inhabited from 1851 to 1963, and pass beautiful waterfalls—great photo opportunities. Wildflowers and nesting birds may also be seen. After the hike, we return to the coach for the trip back to the pier.
