Hvítserkur, otherwise known as the Troll of Northwest Iceland, is a 15 m tall basalt rock stack protruding from Húnaflói Bay. It's located at the eastern shore of the Vatnsnes peninsula, in northwest Iceland. Sea erosion has carved out unique holes in the shape and often seals can be spotted enjoying the view. The base of the stack has been reinforced with concrete to protect its foundations from the sea. Hvítserkur is a beautiful cliff where many types of seabirds, especially gulls and fulmars, have made their nests for centuries.
Thanks so much for my first view card from Iceland Erika!
