bericht van Jan In Iceland

Heimaklettur, also known as The Home Rock, is the tallest mountain on Heimaey, offering stunning views across the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago in Iceland. Despite its imposing appearance, there is a challenging but rewarding walking track to the top, complete with ladders, ropes, and chains to help hikers navigate the steep cliffs. The hike takes about 1 to 1.5 hours round trip from the Eiðið carpark, with the summit reaching 279 meters above sea level. Don't miss the hidden view behind the top, showcasing a beautiful circle of cliffs around the harbour entrance – truly a must-do adventure for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts.
