Today will be a long day. The upcoming journey covering 440 km (270 mi) will take about 10-11 hours, during which we will visit charming village in Borgarnes, Bjarnarfoss waterfall, and the church in Budir. The church is surrounded by beautiful scenery. On its one side is the coastline and the other side is mountains. You can also see the lava fields and the tombs. From Budir church, you can take a walk to the beach to see the volcanic sand and lava rocks left by the earthquake. On the way, we will also visit the famous Snaefellsjokull glacier, and Arnarstapi, a bustling port whose surrounding columnar basalt and lava bed are spectacular. The following highlights are black pebbled beach Djupalonsandur, Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall and the must-visit Kirkjufell Mountain. Located between two glaciers, Kirkjufell Mountain is one of the 10 most beautiful mountains in the world. The layers of Kirkjufell Molunatin are the results of volcanic eruptions. At the end of the day, send you back to the hotel in Reykjavik.
