“Skálholt is one of the most historic places in Iceland. It was an episcopal see, a school, a seat of learning and administration for more than 700 years and a place of pilgrimage in medieval times. ​Skálholt of our time is more than history. It is a place of culture, spirituality and music run by the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Iceland, ELCI, – and open for all. It is the site of a deputy bishop and a local parish pastor . Besides services every Sunday, there are morning and evening prayers on weekdays. In Skálholt there are frequent cultural, educational and artistic events and retreats.”

“A beautiful double waterfall in the Thjorsá Valley The falls are named after the surrounding area of Hjalp, which means “help”. Travelers along the harsh Sprengisandur Route found this well-vegetated area to be one of great aid and recovery for their horses after a difficult crossing through the interior highlands. Volcanic ash can be found scattered throughout the entire valley, just one of many prominent signs of the eruptions of Mt. Hekla.”
