Depart the Eastfjords and make your way north along the Ring Road before turning off into the Diamond Circle. First stop is Detifoss, the second most powerful waterfall in Europe before continuing north to the impressive Asbyrgi Canyon. Hike along the canyon rim or take a gentle stroll through the lower foliage to view the bright emerald lake at the base of the cliffs.
Day 2 Husavik to Akureyri
Brought to fame by the blockbuster film about the Eurovision Song Contest, Husavik is one of the oldest settlements in Iceland and features a magnificent wooden church from 1907.
