Itinerary description
Bjólfur (named after the fjord's first settler) 1085 m. Starting from the Stafdalur skiing lodge (65°14.365-14°06.725), follow the stakes up the slopes of Stafdalsfell until you can cross the Stafdalsá above its uppermost waterfall. Ascending Bjólfur is easy from the west end, using a vehicle track where fibre-optic cable was buried. Although the visitors' book container is in the rock cairn on the summit (65°15.890-14°03.668), it pays to descend about 70 m onto the next shoulder below to enjoy the fabulous view of Seyðisfjörður.
