  • A walking tour in Borgarfjörður eystri, a fjord in east Iceland. It is part of the municipality of Borgarfjarðarhreppur . The main settlement is Bakkagerði. With a total of around 100 inhabitants, the area, nonetheless, has plenty to offer, including some of the most populated elfin settlements in Iceland and a tremendous variety of hiking routes. In addition, the marina has by far the best access to puffins in Iceland, where you can observe the birds from a distance of two meters. The town derives its name from the Álfaborg (Elf Rock). Some of the locals believe that the queen of the elves lives in the Álfaborg.

    Fascinating area... As a New Yorker, learning over the years that New York is not the center of the universe, these moments have become pleasant reminders. Thank you

      Just think, a long time ago New York (New Amsterdam back then I guess) started out similar like this in size

      @@IcelandHotSpots lol it is true. As a matter of fact, when living on the Upper West Side there was a plack on a coffee house, around mid eighties and Columbus, a real big area, that stated " Edgar Allen Poe had lived in a cabin in this are when it was a forest."
