Reykjavík Grapevine - 29.07.2011, Síða 69

The Full Circle and the
Westfjords Passport is
the same as the Full
Circle Passport with
the addition of the
Breiðafjörður area
and the Westfjords of
Iceland. You will take a
ferry across the beautiful
Breiðafjörður. The mostly
shallow fjord is dotted
with more than 3000
islands of all sizes and
shapes, the most famous
of which is the second largest; Flatey. The Westfjords
are a unique part of Iceland. Mostly narrow with steep
mountain sides down to the ocean. The
population has been dwindling the last
decades mostly because of how isolated
the area is during the winter. But it is this
isolation that makes the area so magical.
The calm fjords can make even the most
restless of people stoic. This being said,
there is no shortage of life and excite-
ment in the villages along the coast of the
Westfjords during the summer. Festivals
of all sorts, markets and exhibitions take
place every week. Last and not least this
passports connects with tours to the
amazing Hornstrandir; once inhabited by
farmers and fishermen but now deserted,
a triumph of nature.
