About This Spot
Great ridge site for an easterly. It is possible to park right at the takeoff.
Getting back to the top of the hill is usually done by someone driving down and retrieving. It would be about an hour to walk back up the old road to the top.
Takeoff altitude: 260m

Access Notes
From Reykjavik, take road 1 in the direction of Selfoss. Just before Hveragerdi, when the road starts to go downhill from the highest point, there is a small gravel track on the right (south) side of the road. Follow this rough track to the edge of the cliff.
