Hotel Edda Neskaupstadur - Neskaupstathur, Iceland 

Location

There are sports facilities and a 25-metre swimming pool just a few minutes walk from the hotel. There is also a traditional Icelandic hotpot.

Neskaupstadur is the largest community in east Iceland and has a population of 1,700. Neskaupstadur is on Norðfjörður, one of the east coast’s many picturesque and spectacular fjords. Until 1949 Neskaupstadur had no road link to the outside world and was only accessible by sea. The town is still a busy fishing port all year round and the flourishing fish industry is the area’s main source of employment.

The municipality of Neskaupstadur stretches all the way from Gerpir, in the south, to Nípa, between Norðfjörður and Mjóifjörður. Gerpir is the easternmost point of Iceland and is geologically fascinating.

The East Iceland Maritime Museum is at Eskifjörður and there is war museum at Reyðarfjörður, which focuses on the Second World War, when Iceland was occupied by British and then American troops.

To the east of Neskaupstadur, facing the ocean, is the Neskaupstadur Nature Reserve, an area of outstanding natural beauty with many hiking paths and spectacular scenery.

Eyðibyggðir is a series of abandoned settlements between Eskifjörður and Neskaupstadur, and is fantastic for hiking, with many walking trails through the area’s magnificent landscape.
