Update 11.august 2007 : I've added a second log book, since the old one has been used up.

This should be fairly easy to get to for the tourist in iceland since its only a few kilometers from the icelandic international airport.Easiest way to locate Valahnúkur is to get to the Reykjanesviti lighthouse. Valahnúkur is just past that.Locate a small hut and find the cache.Since this is near a cliff i feel obliged to warn that no remotely dangerous activity is needed to find the cache.Cache Contents:1.A Magazine - Myndir Manadarins [Movies of the month - April edition]2.A Broach3.Three marbles4.One Smurfette figurine, detachable at the hip for some reason.5.Two incense holders6.A leather pouch7.Three bracelets.8.A Whistle.9.Three native stone pebbles.10.D100 OffRoad VW Beetle Yellow Toycar.I really recommend checking this location and the cache out, since the scenery there is stunning.
