👍👍 We needed to spend a first night in Iceland on our way to the East and chose this place for its affordability (we stayed in the pods) and good location. We were not disappointed.

Staldrið Food Truck
Restaurant
👍👍 Sensational food. Very tasty soup and roll ( a thick broth filled with scrumptious meat and veg); awesome fish and chips, which were nice and crispy; and hot dogs with everything (which were so good, we got more). The service was very friendly and if it were cold we could’ve sat in the cosy greenhou...

Brúarás Geo Center - Restaurant
Restaurant
👍👍 The absolute best place in the area for food. Some of the eateries in the rural areas can be a bit of a tourist trap (crazy expensive and mediocre food—I’m looking at you, Húsafell), but this place is the local social hall so there are locals who come here too. Nice if you wanna try traditional Icel...

They had their buffet open until 4, and this was the freshest salad and vegetables we have had our entire trip. The bread was hot and fresh. The cream of broccoli and cauliflower soup was just put out, and...

Eldborg
Hiking area
🫤 Takes an hour to get there and all you see is a big rock. Good if you haven't seen rocks before in your life. Gave an extra star as the 4G signal is great on top, you can browse the internet while waiting for others.

👍 Visited with camper van on 8 Apr 2023. Nice camp site with a great surrounding view. The camp fee was 3000 ISK for two. The common are was moderate. I think the large hall will open only in Summer. There are two common showers and separate toilet. Hot shower is included.
