Akureyri, Iceland: 1-Day Travel Guide
✔️ Brynja Ice Cream 🍦 Compared to the ice cream in Reykjavík, this place is totally unique—its texture is like a mix between milkshake and cheese! Even my fitness-obsessed partner, who never eats sweets, couldn’t resist having multiple bites. A must-try!!! ✔️ Greifinn Restaurant 🦞 A classic Western-style eatery—try their pizza, lamb chops, and lobster soup! ✔️ NORTH66 Outlet 🧥 The "Arc'teryx of the Nordics" and the cheapest place in all of Iceland! Important: Don’t go to the one on the main street—the real deal is at [Skipagata 9, 600 Akureyri]. Go early in the morning and take your time digging through the racks—you’ll score so many great finds! ✔️ Heart-Shaped Traffic Lights ❤️🚥 One of Akureyri’s most iconic sights, right on the main street. Head to the intersection with the mountain view, and you’ll spot them! Also nearby are adorably dressed trash bins 🧶—super cozy-looking with high-quality knitwear, perfectly showcasing the city’s charm. ✔️ Forest Lagoon ♨️ You absolutely have to visit this hot spring!!! The atmosphere is unbeatable—lit-up stone tables everywhere, gorgeous drinks, and water in a translucent green hue that feels like an infinity pool with views of the town. #Akureyri#Forest Lagoon#Iceland#travel guide#Iceland guide#Brynja
