NORTHERN ICELAND

Today we made long travel on route 82 and 76 around (Troll Peninsula). It rests its vast mountainous bulk between Skagafjörður and Eyjafjörður. Here the craggy mountains, deep valleys, and gushing rivers are reminiscent of the Westfjords but bigger. Strange narrow one lane wide tunnels link the northern townships of Siglufjörður and Ólafsfjörður, once dead-end towns that saw little tourist traffic. That was a great drive!
