Westfjiords

We're traveling to Iceland in the next week and I'm planning on taking a day trip to Holmavik in the Westfjiords. Has anyone been there and what are the road conditions like? It looks like regular highway but the map could be deceiving. TIA

Here is a website that will show you if a road is paved or gravel. https://vegasja.vegagerdin.is/eng/

We have been to Iceland a handful of times, but not to the Westfjords just yet. Next month;) So I can't help with personal experience, just what I have researched for myself. I would love to hear about your trip when you return!

Thanks for your response. I will certainly post an after trip report. As to the roads in the area of the Westfjiords where we plan on going, I was able to find some clear information. Thanks again, Marybeth

Glad to help:) We will be in the Westfjords for 10 days, then 7 days for two other areas. Really looking forward to seeing a new area of the country.
