HÖFN

Höfn is an Icelandic little fishing town in southeast Iceland. We made here a short refreshing stop before Vestrahorn. Höfn means ‘harbor’, as the town is located in one of the few natural harbors of Iceland’s South Coast; unlike the rest of the country, this stretch is flat. The town is right at the tip of its own peninsula; it is surrounded on three sides by the ocean, which brings in the town extreme freezing conditions during winter.
