Vestrahorn - Landscape Photography in Iceland
Landscape photography in Iceland (Part 1) - Vestrahorn. Our first landscape photography vlog from Iceland comes from Vestrahorn also known as Stokksnes. Located near Hofn in south west Iceland, Vestrahorn is a location we have wanted to photograph for a long time, and a great way to start off our trip to Iceland. Iceland simply blew us away, we have always known that Iceland is an amazing location for landscape photography, but just weren't prepared for how much we would fall in love with this country. After having a KP6 northern lights on the first evening, and taking our first ever aurora photographs, we spent the first couple of days of our week in Iceland exploring locations on the 'Golden Circle' before heading to Vestrahorn to start our photography tour of the south coast.

Vestrahorn Mountain in East Iceland
Vestrahorn mountain is located in East Iceland, on the Stokknes Peninsula, close to the town of Hofn. It is one of the most popular photographers' spots to capture the mountain and black sand beach with reflections in the sea waters.
The sands surrounding the mountain are black due to the island’s volcanism. Vestrahorn faces out to the sea on its southern side and is surrounded by a sandy coastline that is often home to seals.
Unlike most of the mountains in Iceland, it is made out of iron- and magnesium-rich gabbro rock, which leads to its dark and jagged appearance.

Amazing views across the black beach and bay to Vestrahorn. There is also a viking village here, created as a movie set which never got off the ground.

Vestrahorn - Iceland (HD1080)
*** Vestrahorn is a 454 meter high mountain overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and part of the headland of Stokksnes. ***
Vestrahorn mountain - East Iceland
Separating the South of Iceland from the Eastfjords, Vestrahorn rises defiantly out of the black sand beach of Stokksnes. It is one of few gabbro mountains in Iceland and is an iconic sight, even compared to the multitude of glaciers, volcanoes and otherworldly beaches that adorn the Icelandic coastline.
Vestrahorn means West Horn, a self-explanatory word for English speakers, but the mountains may have reminded the viking settlers of horns. On the far end you can see the three-peaked Brunnhorn mountain, which some modern travellers call the Batman mountain, because it resembles the Batman sign.
The mountain has been featured in numerous films and TV series, such as Stardust, featuring Robert DeNiro and Michelle Pfeiffer, and the Bollywood romance Dilwale.

The first sport route in the secluded & wild Vestrahorn! The access is pretty adventurous on its own (that might be an understatement), what an exciting area!

Photographing Vestrahorn in Iceland
Just outside of Höfn on the southern coast of Iceland lies Vestrahorn, a stunning mountain range flanked by the Atlantic Ocean and waves of black sand dunes. In this video I explore Vestrahorn for the first time hoping to find a good composition for a landscape photo.

Stokksnes - Viking village - Iceland
Coordonnées: 64°15'56.3N 14°59'38.4W
Durée de l'activité: 01h00
Coût: 600 ISK (6 $ CAD)
La péninsule de Stokksnes, où se dresse l'imposant mont Vestrahorn, est située en Islande.
C'est à cet endroit que se situe le Viking Cafe, un tout petit restaurant qui vend entre autres du café, des sandwiches et des gaufres.
Nous sommes allés visiter le petit village viking situé à proximité. Le droit d'entrée de 600 ISK est payable à l'intérieur du restaurant.
S'il n'y a personne, un petit coffre est laissé à l'extérieur pour que l'on y dépose le montant exigé.
Il s'agit d'une reconstitution d'un village viking pour un film réalisé par Baltasar Kormákur. Le film n'a jamais été tourné. Cependant, Universal Studios aurait acheté les droits de ce film en 2014.
Le site est vraiment enchanteur. Les bâtiments représentent fidèlement l'époque viking. On y retrouve même un donjon situé sous un énorme rocher artificiel.
A proximité, il y a également une belle plage de sable noir.
L'endroit est vraiment photogénique.
