This seems to be a place where many people return having been here for camp or vacation as youths, like the migrating birds, they come back. It had that feel to it, but one puts up with more in youth than one can in older age. The access takes much longer than it seems or than GPS will have you think. Plan accordingly. Your cell phone may not have signal unless in a populated area. The “highway” to get here is a ROUGH one! We lived, and drove, in Canada, Spain, Portugal Norway and Colorado- these in Westfjords were by far the worst gravel roads ever: yay, Iceland!! You win!! You have to bring your own supplies and food in many cases. Plan accordingly. Gas up when you can, never going below 3/4 tank. The roads are mostly gravel and usually narrow. But the location is pristine, minus the sheep dung and probably bird doo, but those are a minor thing. Seeing the almost-midnight sun dipping into the horizon there is a marvelous sight. Seeing so many migratory birds ( and people) excited about arriving in their summer home- breathtaking.
