Skagaás grove
Skagás is a small but beautiful forest area, offering visitors a peaceful outdoor space surrounded by young woodland and open countryside. Though modest in size, the forest is a testament to local reforestation efforts and the community's commitment to nurturing nature.
The area features walking paths that meander through rows of birch, spruce, and pine trees, making it ideal for a gentle stroll, a mindful moment alone, or a relaxing family outing. The forest is well-suited for short walks, picnics, or simply sitting among the trees and listening to birdsong in the calm of the countryside. Skagaás is also a living example of Iceland’s ongoing forestry efforts. Over the years, this once open land has been gradually transformed into a green space with growing biodiversity and increasing natural beauty.
Skagaás grove is easily accessible and open for everyone but please take care not to leave any litter behind. Barbequing is allowed only in a specially designated area due to fire hazard.
