OVERVIEW

Enjoy an adventurous ride in a 4x4 vehicle through some of east Iceland’s most beautiful countryside to the miniscule town of Brekka. To reach this municipal curiosity, you will travel inland, stopping along the way atop a mountain pass to take in the magnificent scenery. Not far away, you will find Egilsstaðir, the largest town in east Iceland. Its population is only about 2,500, so you can imagine the size of Brekka, the country’s tiniest town. It overlooks the narrow fjord Mjóifjörður and is just a few small buildings clustered around the waterfront. Even so, it is well worth a visit because of the pristine setting, which boasts a spectacular row of waterfalls nearby. Brekka perches on a part of the fjord that is home to an abundance of birds, particularly the powerful Great Northern Diver, which is known elsewhere as the Common Loon. It is thought to be the world’s oldest species of bird.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Drive through wonderfully picturesque eastern Iceland in a 4x4 vehicle.
• See Brekka, Iceland’s smallest town, which perches on the edge of a narrow fjord.
• Look for seabirds such as the Great Northern Diver, which thrive in this remote setting.
