Spend The Weekend At
A Remote Lighthouse
Labour day weekend
Galtarviti Lighthouse
Campsite: 500 ISK/night. Space in a 12 person tent is also available for 700 ISK/
night.
Looking for the ultimate escape for Verslunarmannahelgi weekend? Then head out
to the Westfjords, and join artist and mountaineer Sara Riel on a short trek from
Skalavík to the Galtarviti Lighthouse. There, you can spend a weekend in a majestic
setting without modern distractions like cell phone reception. As Sara told the
Grapevine: “There’s something very special about this place. It’s hard to put a finger
on it, but I think it’s a combination of its isolation and the beautiful yet dramatic na-
ture surrounding it…” That being said, it’s no wonder that writers, artists and musi-
cians, including Múm, have been heading out there to create their masterpieces.
The ‘Echo Of The North’ exhibit will also be open with guided tours, and you can
expect to see some great musicians playing over the weekend as well.
