You don't need to go to a known place to see wonderful views and locations in Iceland. You can choose a random location and make your own way for hiking.
I used an app named Alltrails which shows you every trail that people have recorded. You can find so many trails or they don't even need to be trails. I found one trail near the place called Vatnsfjördur. It was a bit too long to complete it because it was already pretty late but we decided to stop and just take a short stroll and see the area. Located on the southern side of the Westfjörds, it's an absolutely gorgeous area.
We first took a walk near the sea over rugged terrain. There even was a small waterfall that looks to be nameless.
The water level seemed to be really low because many rocks were visible that usually seem to be underwater.
Having checked the seaside we walked a little to another direction where a quite huge lake was. Lake has the name Vatnsdalsvatn, what an interesting name because to translate it directly, it means lakes's lake.
Path to the lake.
I like to climb rocks lol.
A couple of more shots from this gorgeous area.
I wish we had more time to explore this area and complete this trail. Maybe next time?
Here is one shot I really like, is taken in this location, on this bridge you see in the photo above. Taken by my girlfriend.
