Walks, hikes, mountain-climbing - The area around Ártún offers an exceptional variety of hikes and walks. The mountain Kaldbakur (1167 m) offers a welcome and not too demanding challenge (and a breathtaking view) to the experienced hiker (and a comfortable exercise for seasoned mountaineers), while Þengilshöfði (260 m) and Laufáshnjúkur (662 m) present walkers with easier tasks - but a glorious view of Eyjafjörður, none the less.
