A Holy Mountain with a breathtaking panoramic view across Breiðafjörður Bay. A viewing dial is at the top.
Folklore advises anyone climbing the mountain for the first time to walk straight up without looking back or speaking and three wishes will be granted. The wishes have to be of good intent, the wish-maker tells no one and faces east when making them.
A small remnant of a wall on the mountain top is dated to 1184 AD and was a part of a nearby monastery.
