Amazing mountain with different hiking routes to choose from. The view from the top is simply wonderful.

Wonderful small mountain just outside of Grindavik and close to Blue Lagoon. This is a mountain with a rich history. On one hand, from World War two, the where an army base the during the war and the army made rood up there. And then the two summits are split by a fissure called "The Thieves´ Gap", occupied by 15 thieves according to an old folklore (legend). They were eventually overcome and killed.

A good hour walk with beautiful view of the town of Grindavík, Reykjanesbær and the Blue Lagoon . Do not walk pass the canyon on the top because it is the most beautiful part of the hike. You can walk through it and then down the southern side of the mountain. Britain and the United States had a radar station on the mountain during the Second World War, and it is still evident where the buildings were. Also there is an information platform with pictures from the station.
