Description:
Krossanesfjall is a rugged mountain ridge just outside the fishing town of Höfn in southeast Iceland. It offers panoramic views over the town, the Atlantic coastline, and the vast Vatnajökull glacier in the distance. The drive up the gravel road provides several viewpoints where you can stop for photos, and on clear days the landscapes are especially breathtaking. It’s a quieter spot compared to nearby attractions like Stokksnes or Jökulsárlón, making it a hidden gem for those who want a peaceful viewpoint with fewer crowds.

Price:
Visiting Krossanesfjall is free, and parking along the viewpoints is also free. Guided tours that include Krossanesfjall are less common, but private tours around Höfn and the Eastfjords start at about $120–180 USD per person.
