A few miles from the North Pole and tucked away between mountains that reach 1000-1500m is the bustling, cosmopolitan town of Akureyri. With a summer crammed with lively festivals, some of Iceland's best winter skiing and a fine selection of museums, shops, cafes, bars and restaurants, it's no surprise Akureyri is a popular destination for short or long stays. Set at the head of a long fjord, the Eyjafjörður Fjord, Akureyri is also the ideal base to begin an incredible journey through Iceland's most beautiful wonders such as waterfalls, volcanic areas and canyons.
