Discover the Ingólfur Arnarson Monument: A Tribute to Iceland's First Settler

Getting There

• Bus

  From Keflavik, take the Strætó bus number 55 towards Reykjavík. The bus departs from the Keflavik Bus Terminal, located near the airport. Stay on the bus for about 45 minutes until you arrive at the 'Hlemmur' bus station in Reykjavík. Once you arrive at Hlemmur, exit the bus and head towards the main street called Laugavegur. Walk along Laugavegur street for approximately 15 minutes until you reach the intersection with Hverfisgata. Turn left onto Hverfisgata and continue walking for about 10 minutes until you reach Arnarhóll, the location of Ingólfur Arnarson.

• Taxi

  From any point in Keflavik, you can call a taxi to take you directly to Ingólfur Arnarson in Reykjavík. The journey will take approximately 40-50 minutes, depending on traffic. Make sure to provide the driver with the address: '43X8+4QG, Arnarhóll, 101 Reykjavík'. This is the most convenient option if you want a direct route without transfers.

• Walking

  If you are already in central Keflavik and prefer to walk, you can head south towards the coastline. Follow the coastal path until you reach the main road leading to Reykjavík. This is a longer option and might take several hours. Ensure you have a map or GPS to guide you along the route, as it can be tricky without local knowledge.
