Selfoss is just off one of the national highways, making it the central point for many travelers. The town is known as the crossroads to the south, and there are many tours that leave from the city to go to many of the nearby locations that are easily accessible by the many roads such as the Gullfoss Waterfall or the Þórsmörk Wilderness. Since the city is a huge trading centre, shopping in one of the many stores is a favorite activity of locals and visitors. For visitors who wish to walk without spending money, the trail along the Ingólfsfjall Mountain is a taxing but beautiful hike that presents views over the northern mountain rings to the Vestmann Islands in the south. Close by the eastern part of town is the Ölfusá River which makes for a lovely river-side walk. If you prefer something more active than walking a nine-hole golf course is right next to the River. |
