Farm
Klaustursel in the Jokuldalur Valley is a large property, formerly used
as summer pastures for the sheep of farm Skriduklaustur in the
Fljotsdalur Valley.
The oldest passable bridge across the glacial river Jokulsa a Dal
was built there in 1908.
Originally it was a railway bridge in USA, but was shipped to
village Vopnafjordur and transported from there on horses to the building
site, where it was riveted together.
The
detour to Klaustursel is quite worth while to enjoy the gallery and
handicraft centre and take a look at the reindeers nearby. |
