We then proceed to explore the magical Snæfellsnes Peninsula. Overnight in Stykkishólmur.Īfter an early breakfast we return to Kirkjufell and Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall seeking out some great lighting and hopefully beautiful reflection during sunrise. If the skies are clear and we’re expecting Aurora activity we may choose to return to Kirkjufell and Kirkjufellsfoss again. We then proceed to our accommodation for the night then dinner at a nearby restaurant. Our final destination is Kirkjufell and Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall for sunset, regarded as the most photographed scene in all of Iceland. The contrast of the cold water flowing out of warm autumn coloured shrubs makes for some great photography.

Our first major stop for the day will be the spectacular Hraunfossar where a series of waterfalls cascade out of an ancient lava flow. It will quickly become apparent why Iceland draws so many landscape photographers and travellers from around the world. After breakfast we commence our journey to Snæfellsnes Peninsula, travelling past spectacular scenery. We will rise early and take a short walk down to The Sun Voyager Sculpture for sunrise. At night we proceed to a nearby restaurant for our welcome dinner where an overview of the trip will be provided.
