Seljalandsfoss 19 km away (air distance)

The waterfall is fed by a river that originates in the glacier Eyjafjallajökull, famous for its 2010 eruption, which disrupted air travel across Europe. The water drops about 60 metres. The fall is one of the best-known stops in South Iceland, and it is often combined with Skógafoss, which is only a short drive further east.

Eldheimar Museum, Vestmannaeyjar 35 km away (air distance)

Eldheimar is a museum on the island of Heimaey in the Westman Islands, built around a house that was buried by volcanic ash in 1973. Visitors walk around the excavated home and see how the explosion changed daily life for the island's residents. Exhibits tell the story of the eruption with photographs, film and personal belongings.
