Geocache Description:


Ásbyrgi canyon lies in the north of Iceland, about two hours' drive to the east from Akureyri. The enormous, horseshoe-shaped depression is part of the Jökulsárgljúfur National Park and measures approximately 3.5 km in length and 1.1 km across.

For more than half of its length, the canyon is divided through the middle by a distinctive rock formation 25 meters high called Eyjan ("the Island"), from which hikers may enjoy spectacular views.

The walk from the Starting Point near the Information Center to the end of the "island" takes about half an hour if you don´t take too much fotos .
Take care and have fun!

The original cache is a round tupperware box with a logbook and a pencil in it. Also watch the Spoiler pic!
