South Coast – The Black Beach – Private Tour
Admission charges to the museum of Skógar is not included.
From Reykjavík we drive over the plateau of Hellisheiði, past the greenhouse village of Hveragerði, to the village of Hvolsvöllur Along the way we visit two magnificent waterfalls: Seljalandsfoss a tall thin beauty of 73 meters, where one can walk behind the waterfall, and Skógafoss, a 60 meter roaring giant that you can approach, as close as you dare. This area was badly hit by the floods from the eruption at Eyjafjallajökull in the spring of 2010 but has been restored.
The museum of Skógar is one of the best folk museums in the country with old houses made of turf.
There is also the beautiful black Reynisfjara Beach, Iceland´s southern most point with a magnificent sea cave to explore. We continue to the village of Vik, Iceland´s southern most village with its beautiful sea stacks just off-shore (rumored to be Trolls playing in the sea but caught in the rising sunlight turning to stone).
