Everyone knows the famous Reynisfjara Beach with its offshore sea stacks. This spot is often overcrowded. But what if you set off on a 3.5-4 kilometer hike to see the stacks from above and view the landscape from the perspective of a drone? This is possible here on the high plateau.

Photography Tips

Use the wide-angle lens to photograph perspectives as seen through your own eyes.

Travel Information

From Vik, you can walk up to the plateau along a well-maintained road. From there, you have every freedom to explore the area. There are rarely any hikers up there and you won't see any cars. For years, the road has been closed to cars with a barrier, so you have to hike. One way takes about 3.5-4 kilometers with a good 200 meters of altitude. Watch out for the wind, you are completely at the mercy of it at the top.
