We pick you up at the dock and drive to Egilsstadir, the capital of the Eastfjords, from where we take the route around the beautiful Lake Lagarfljot.
Stop for a short walk in the Hallormstadaskogur forest, look out for reindeers and enjoy views of the lake before you get to the Snaefellstofa Visitor Center, where you can learn a lot about the area. A bit ahead is the Skriduklaustur church and the cosy Klausturkaffi.
Drive back along the other side of the lake looking out for the (in)famous monster, Lagafljotsormur. Sightings have been reported since the 14th century, the latest being in 2012.
