easy walk in an Icelandic "forrest". Located around Perlan, where you can find a store, restaurant and a coffee house. You don´t have to pay to get into those places.
In the walking distance on the other side of our little creek, Fossvogur is Öskjuhlíðin. Only about 50 + years ago this was a bare rocky hill with only the remains of the British and US military base from the second WW. Then it was decided to plant trees and make it a park, and today it's the biggest park in the Reykjavík area but not the nicely decorative park type, but a forest type where you can easily get lost or lose your track just like elsewhere in nature. Ruins of the military base are scattered around the hill, small underground tunnels and lookouts and a wall here and a wall there that is no way you can know what was to begin white.

Great little hill with trails between the trees, great for walking, running, view over Reykjavík. You'll find some history between the trees and some art as well. On the other side of it there's Reykjavik's artificial beach, Nauthólsvík.
An odd shaped building called "Perlan" (which means "The pearl") that currently houses some restaurants and tourist attractions. It's surrounded by a cluster of trees large enough to be considered a forest by Icelandic standards... but it's a nice place to spend an afternoon regardless!
