Around Bakkagerði: the eastern fjords of Iceland

There are two regions in Iceland where the landscape is dominated by fjords. This is in the north-west and in the south-east. Fjords are also present in other regions but not quite as a striking feature as in the mentioned regions. The slide show below is restricted to the very eastern part of the south-eastern region. It is a peacfull and gentle region not yet invaded by mass-tourism even though the seaport where the scheduled ferry from mainland Europe arives at Iceland is only a few miles away!
