Brúarhlöð
About
Found on Iceland, Brúarhlöð sits along 846, in the southern part of the country within reach of Selfoss and the towns of the south coast. Reaching it from Reykjavik, Vik or Hofn is a straightforward drive for anyone touring the island by car, with Keflavik the main arrival point for most visitors. The setting on 846 places it inland from the coast, in the quieter stretch between the better-known stops of the ring road.
A 4.5 out of 5 average across 465 reviews places it among the more consistently regarded addresses in the area. Travellers based in Akureyri, Husavik or Isafjordur in the north can also plan a visit while circling the island. The venue draws a steady stream of visitors, and its position between Selfoss and the south coast makes it a practical stop on a longer drive.
Grey and harbour seals haul out on Icelandic skerries, and orcas and minke whales feed offshore, which makes the coastal stretches worth lingering over. Skyr, rye bread baked in geothermal ground and fermented shark are traditional Icelandic foods, and Þorrablót, a midwinter feast of traditional food, is celebrated on Icelandic islands in January or February.
Brúarhlöð, on Iceland, offers a stopping point in the south of the country, with its 4.5 rating from 465 reviews reflecting its standing among visitors.
