Welcome to the Hengifoss area
When you visit the Hengifoss & Hallormsstaður area look for the local brands and be sure to taste at least some of our delicacies.
The area is rich of sources for giving you a taste of Austurland. The woodlands and valleys are full of mushrooms, berries and edible plants, pure ingredients for products and portions. The highlands are ruled by wild reindeer, goose and the sheep from the local farmers. Close by are the fjords with sustainable fishery.
