You find yourself at Elliðavatn, a lake situated in the area of Reykjavík. It is in the vicinity of natural park Heiðmörk with its hiking and biking trails, small forests, and lava formations. The eastern shores of Elliðavatn are part of the Heiðmörk nature reserve, protected by the state. The lake was originally two different lakes called Vatnsendavatn and Vatnsvatn. The former belonged to the town of Kópavogur, and the latter to Reykjavík, meaning Elliðavatn rests on the borders of the two. Elliðavatn has a length of about 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) and a depth of approximately 1-2 meters (3-7 feet). The lake is fed by the rivers Bugðá and Suðurá, but the lake’s primary outflow is the river Elliðaá. The rivers and lakes are popular angling spots for catching Arctic char, salmon, and brown trout.
Nearby, there is a little boutique hotel, quite expensive, but with lovely rooms and fantastic views.
The cache is located at a peaceful little, out of the way spot, with beautiful view over the lake. I suggest bringing a picnic basket if the weather is nice!
This is not a tricky cache and I don't want people to start moving a lot of stones near the fence to the house so just start at the corner ;)
