This mountain has become known as the ‘Batman’ mountain among locals because the three towers are shaped like a bat. It is situated in the east of Iceland. If you drive along the ringroad number 1 heading East from the town Höfn, you will see it when you are in Papafjörður fjord, you can also take a right turn towards Papós to admire it. It’s accessible to any type of car.
In front of it you see a little bit of Vestrahorn mountain, that is right next to it and is also a gorgeous mountain (as can be seen above).
What do you like most about Iceland?
“Iceland left me spellbound as I wandered from place to place. It quickly became one of my favourite countries in the world after my first visit. It’s such a beautiful country filled with warm and welcoming people (who are also beautiful). The landscape here is like nothing else in the world. It’s magic! Everyone told me Iceland would blow my mind. It definitely did.”
What is your favourite place in Iceland?
“I loved visiting the Mývatn Nature Baths. These were quieter and less expensive than the famous Blue Lagoon outside Reykjavik. I relaxed here by myself for over an hour mellowing out in the warm waters. I also loved seeing the waterfalls, and there are so many waterfalls to visit throughout the country. But my favourite region is probably the northwest. It’s pretty empty up there and there aren’t a lot of tourists or people. I love the quiet and the hiking.”
Casual Travelist is run by Brianna who’s written half a dozen informative articles about Iceland. Unlike many of the other bloggers, she isn’t a full-time blogger, but writes about “laid back luxury, with a focus on culinary, city and nature travel.”
Or as she puts it: “Balancing a full-time career with a love of travel I have been sharing my experiences and tips at the Casual Travelist since 2014 where I aim to show other working professionals how they too can get out and explore the world.”
