List of cities and towns in Iceland
This is a list of cities and towns in Iceland. Some of Iceland’s larger cities and towns are also self-contained municipalities whose geography and populations are therefore equal. However, most of Iceland’s municipalities, which are semi-autonomous administrative zones, contain several disparate towns or cities, each of whose population contributes to that of its respective municipality.
In addition to Iceland's many independent towns, this article includes cities and towns whose municipalities consist of one, self-contained city of the same name, such as Hafnarfjörður and Akranes. Municipalities that are not also cities or towns, such as Árborg, are not included here, but their constituent towns and cities are. For Árborg, these include the towns of Selfoss, Eyrarbakki, and Stokkseyri.
For more information on the administrative divisions of Iceland, refer to the “Divisions” section of the Iceland infobox on this page.

Small Icelandic Towns #4 - Kópavogur - The Largest Small Town in Iceland
My small town series are meant to give you an idea about how it is to live in Icelandic small towns, without sounding like a tourist guide. My motto is to show them in different seasons trough drive-around videos, as they are, in every kind of mood and weather there is. Please tolerate with my work since I'm an amateur in film-making but practice makes perfect. My plan is to make a mini-documentaries over all Icelandic towns in the next years so this is far from end result. I use all my free time to record in different seasons, making info-texts and collecting feedback in order to make my material straight to the point with the information travellers seek while planing their trip to my country.
So enjoy this winter ride trough Iceland's second largest town, but it's small on international scale. Please use the subtitle option for full narration, or turn them of to enjoy the view even better.
Hotel Laxnes Reyjkavik, Iceland | Iceland Hotels
A promotional video for the incredible Hotel Laxnes in Iceland. The hotel is located in Mosfellsbaer, just outside of Reyjavik, and is in a great position where you can take a morning or afternoon walk in a different direction every day and Unveil something amazing. The hotel staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and will help you coordinate your trip through Iceland.
Where to go in Iceland | March 2016
Flights:
We flew from Gatwick airport (London) to Keflavik International airport (Iceland). I usually catch a tube from work to Victoria station and then catch a Gatwick express straight to Gatwick airport.
I have to say, I prefer flying from Gatwick over Heathrow, Stanstead and Luton airport. There are less people which equal less stress when lining up to get through security.
What to wear in Iceland?
I brought thermal top and bottom, hiking boots, snow gear and fleeces.
Where to get cheap snow gear in London?
I bought my snow jacket, pants and hiking boots from Decathlon in Canada Waters and it all cost me less than £100 because I fit kids sizes. I preferred hiking boots over snow boots because they are waterproof and I knew I would get a lot of wear out of them.
Accommodation:
Stayed at Laxnes Hotel in Reykjavik, its 30 minutes away from the city, which I preferred. There's nothing better than waking up and seeing a mountain view first thing in the morning. Some of the hotel guests said they saw the northern lights from the hotel at night time.
It cost approx £300 for 2 people for 3 nights which included breakfast, the rooms were really clean and the staff members are very helpful as well. I highly recommend this place.
Tours:
The Goldern Circle - I booked it through a sight called Isango, they are very flexible with date changes and zero cancellation fees.
We wanted to do the glacier tour but sadly due to the bad weather we had to change it to the South Shore tour where we saw Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss Waterfalls and visited the Vik Village where the black sand beach is.
The blue Lagoon:
My favourite place, some say its too touristy but I loved it. If you plan on going, I recommend buying your entry fee in advance incase of disappointment. They have a really nice restaurant there called LAVA restaurant, definitely worth a visit if you are already there.
Let me know if you have any questions :) and give it a thumbs up if you enjoyed it.
Driving out of Reykjavik towards North Iceland
English:
In this video you see how to drive from the old part of Reykjavík, Iceland all the way through the suburbs and the neighbouring town of Mosfellsbær until you reach the main highway going towards Western and Northern Iceland (Road 1). In the last seconds of the video you come to a roundabout. To continue on road 1 to West- or North-Iceland you take the second exit, but if you want to drive towards Thingvellir (Þingvellir) or other places in Iceland's interior you'll need to take the first exit and get on road 36.
Italiano:
In questo video vedrai come guidare dalla parte vecchia di Reykjavik passando per i sobborghi e la città vicina Mosfellsbær fino alla periferia dell'area urbana. Alla fine del video arriviamo ad una rotonda. Per continuare verso Islanda occidentale o settentrionale sulla statale n.1 (la ring road) bisogna prendere la seconda uscita della rotonda. Ma per guidare verso Islanda centrale (per esempio verso Thingvellir o Geysir) bisogna prendere la prima uscita della rotonda sulla statale 36.
