Látrabjarg Cliff Walk

Trail description

Látrabjarg, at the westernmost point of Iceland, is Europe's largest bird cliff, 14 km long and up to 440 m high, and this walk follows its edge east from the Bjargtangar lighthouse for 7.3 km one way. Millions of seabirds nest here in summer, including guillemots, razorbills, kittiwakes and puffins, which are present from May until late August. The cliff faces are sheer and the puffin burrows make the edge unstable, so keep well back and avoid disturbing the birds.
