About Fontur
Fontur sits near the far end of Langanes, beyond some of the peninsula’s roughest and most isolated roads. Reaching it is a journey through one of the least populated landscapes accessible by vehicle in Iceland.
Our practical tips
✓Do not make Fontur your first experience of driving remote Icelandic roads.
✓Carry food, water, warm clothing and enough fuel for the return journey.
✓Allow the entire day rather than planning another major attraction afterwards.
