Westfjords, Iceland - 4K Majestic Landscapes

The Westfjords (also called West Fjords or Vestfirdir in icelandic) is a large, very mountainous and sparsely populated peninsula in northwestern Iceland. The coastline is heavily formed by multiple fjords and it is mostly surrounded by steep hills. This part of Iceland is not flooded with tourists like many places in the south of the country. If you like scandinavian landscapes and nature, peace and quiet, truly unspoiled wilderness, a visit to Westfjords will not disappoint you.
