Lóndrangar View Point

My visit to Lóndrangar View Point in Iceland was a truly awe-inspiring experience. As I approached the site, the distinctive volcanic rock formations, Lóndrangar and its neighboring peak, rose dramatically from the rugged landscape. The sense of isolation and the raw beauty of the surroundings created a surreal atmosphere.

The viewing platform offered a panoramic spectacle of the North Atlantic coastline, with crashing waves and distant cliffs completing the dramatic scene. The iconic basalt columns and the sheer scale of Lóndrangar were captivating, evoking a sense of wonder at the geological forces that shaped this unique landscape.

The weather played a role in enhancing the experience; the interplay of sunlight and clouds casting dynamic shadows over the cliffs added a layer of complexity to the scenery. The birdlife around the cliffs, including fulmars and kittiwakes, added a lively touch to the remote and tranquil setting.

While the journey to Lóndrangar involved a bit of exploration, the payoff in terms of natural beauty and the feeling of standing at the edge of Iceland's untamed coastline made it a memorable stop. Lóndrangar View Point is a must-visit for those seeking a profound connection with Iceland's captivating and untouched landscapes.

Trail leads from the small car park (no facilities) to the coastal view point. Amazing view inland towards Snaefellsjokull from the car park. At the viewpoint there are stunning views west towards Lóndrangar and the Malarrif Lighthouse. The cliffs hold colonies of seabirds. The trail then heads east and takes you back to the car park. Definitely add this to your itinerary.

Nice free parking, the view is like a 5 minute walk away

This view point is accessible from the parking lot. It’s an easy walk up the boardwalk to a series of view points overlooking the ocean, Londrangar, and the bird colonies below. Round trip from parking lot to viewpoints and back is 10-15 min in total.

Amazing views of the ocean and lava rock. The sound from the waves were astounding due to the strong currents. It's definitely a must-see stop while driving through the peninsula.

Very close to the road and beautiful views. Be mindful of the heavy wind gusts.

Simply amazing! One of the best roadside viewpoints we found across Iceland. We were mesmerised - the view, the wave sounds, the birds it is such a perfect spot. Don’t miss it if you go through Snaefellsness

Nice little parking lot with a couple minute walk to the view of the cliffs. many different areas you can view from. Very cool!!

I had a strange experience wandering this area during which, for a moment, I distinctly felt a sensation I can only describe as a “spirit” stepped into my body, took a breath through my lungs, looked around with my eyes, then left. I was flooded with a sudden deep appreciation for life and immediately started sobbing. It was suuuuuper bizarre.

A must see. Highly recommend yo do the trail also!

Worth the drive into this park and the roads were good. It is beautiful!

A great stop right off the road. Awesome view of the ocean and cliffs with lots of birds.

Easy to access, spend time to watch the birds flying over the sea and cliffs

Great view point of the Londrangar rock formation to the north and the coast to the south. Free parking lot. Quick 5 minute walk from there gets you great views.

Amazing view of the ocean and on the islandic fiords. There is a wooden stage which permits you too have a comfortable look without risking to fall down. Definitely worth of a stop if you are passing by. Not so further away there is also a small parking lot, free of charge.

This view point is extremely beautiful. The vast expanse of the sea and the basalt rocks down under are such an interesting sight. The horizon appears so grand. The sunset gives a golden glow to this whole place. Walk till the last part of the view point to get the whole glimpse of this stunning place. Beautiful vistas. There are wooden benches where you can sit and relax.

Beautiful in any weather. On the route 54 definitely worth the stop.

Wonderful view point. Easy to reach from the nearby car park. Prepare yourself for strong winds.

Love this kind of locations. Very nice view-line. The two rocks are two trolls that are become a stones. The bigger rock is a daddy troll, smaller - mommy troll. They forgot to hide from sun because of a squabble. Recommended!

Beautiful landmark . Free parking
