Hefn (Hofn), whose webcams can be viewed online on this site, is located in the southeastern part of Iceland, next to the Hornfjord.
This amazing corner of the earth will give the traveler an unforgettable adventure among the endless glaciers. It is here that the largest glacier in Europe, Vatnajökull, is located, as well as the famous Jökulsarlon lagoon far beyond the borders of the country, which often becomes a film set for box office Hollywood films.
Along with the tourism sector, this area is also famous for its healing glacial water, which is created from ancient cold ice, processed using a special technology.
Hefn is one of the few regions in Iceland. Only about 2000 people live here. The main activity of the local population is fishing and fish processing. By the way, one of the largest events in Hebne is the Lobster Festival. At the same time, even for those who cannot attend the celebration itself, there is a great opportunity to taste this delicacy in local restaurants. Along with lobsters, restaurants will offer other no less tasty and delicious dishes made from freshly caught seafood. But most importantly, the prices for one of the most expensive products in the world, in Hebn, are very reasonable.
From lobsters in Chefn prepare almost any kind of dishes. Soups, pasta and even pizza.
The weather in Hefn is due to the proximity to the famous Vatnajökull glacier with its mountain Hvannadalshnukur, which is the highest point of the island.
There you can also enjoy views of the fantastic Jökulsarlon glacial lagoon, formed as a result of the melting of the parent glacier. It is believed that Jokulsarlon is one of the wonders not only of Iceland, but of the whole world. It was here that the shooting of such films as "Batman", "Lara Croft", "James Bond" took place.
Another amazing place is the Skaftafell National Park, which includes the Morsardalur valley, the Kristinartindar peak and the Laki volcano. Another wonderful location in this area is the Svartifoss waterfall, the jets of which fall from giant basalt columns. It is noteworthy that their shape is so geometrically even that it will be difficult for an inexperienced tourist to believe that this object was not made by hands.
The main types of entertainment in Chefn are, of course, excursions. Along with hiking, you can go ice climbing, jeep trips, caving through ice caves, kayaking.
If while the trip to Iceland is postponed, Hefn webcams, which you can watch online on this site in real time, will help compensate for the longing for travel.
