Holmanes (Hólmanes) Nature Reserve

Holmanes (Hólmanes) Nature Reserve

Home to numerous bird species Holmanes is a scenic nature reserve on a headland on the north shore of Reydarfjordur. 

Enjoy the views over the fjord as you walk down towards the shore from the car park and viewpoint.

Above the road, a cairn and picnic table mark the burial site of a Volva or white witch, who reputedly protects the fjord from invaders.
