About Westfjords
The Westfjords are Iceland's stubborn middle finger to easy tourism: deeply indented fjords, dramatic cliffs housing millions of seabirds, and roads that switchback through terrain designed by someone intent on keeping visitors out. Latrabjarg is the westernmost point of Iceland, where nesting puffins seem unconcerned by human visitors. This region rewards those who invest time with solitude and authentic Icelandic wildness.
