Vogar

 
 

The small village of Vogar is a pleasant place to relax and enjoy the rural settings of the Reykjanes peninsula without the hustle and bustle of city life. There is a small but tricky golf course for those who wish to play while enjoying the beautiful landscape. The village also features an outdoor pool that is open to locals and visitors alike during the summer. Hiking has special appeal in this area as trails are easily accessible and near by the town in many directions. There is a circular walk going to Grímshóll then returning to the village along the fantastic Háabjalla fissure. The Stapi Hill is a relatively easy walk that provides a special treat as it is said to be haunted by a headless ghost. Not to distant from the village one can spot the stone ruins named Staðarborg which historians believe may have once served as an ancient sheep pen.
