Description
Krisuvikurberg (Krísuvíkurberg) bird cliffs
A 3km detour down a rough 4x4 dirt track from Suðurstrandarvegur takes you to the imposing black cliffs of Krísuvíkurberg (also known as Krísuvíkurbjarg). Some 10,000 sea birds nest on the six kilometre long 50-70m high cliffs, among them guillemots, Brünnich's guillemots, kittiwakes and fulmars. The cliff face shows a profile of numerous lava flows, one on top of another. The cliff edge is unstable in places and can be buffeted by gusty winds so stay back from the edge! This detour is not feasible in winter.
