The closest town to our place (70km away). Höfn is known for its langoustine and we firmly recommend trying it out. The town inhabits quite a few restaurants so we recommend looking them up before departing (and perhaps book a table if it's the weekend).

Sightseeing

Up in the hill behind the house is a beautiful waterfall. Please feel free to hike up to it. You might have to go over stairs, depending on where you go from and please be careful as the stones around the waterfall might be wet and slippery.

Hoffell hot tubs offer a relaxing experiencing, laying in the hot geothermal water while gazing at the glacier. It's very nice after a long day out and about.
