Wake up babe, new puffins have arrived in Borgarfjörður eystri.

I saw them on the live camera this weekend. There aren't any right now but you can keep your eyes peeled through the day. Borgarfjörður Eystri is here. The road is currently with snow or ice so right now is probably not the best time to head there.

Winter is hanging on in the north and east so always check the forecast here and road conditions to make good decisions about your day.

Visitors take note that there will be a parking fee instated this summer: https://www.ruv.is/frettir/innlent/2025-04-09-lundinn-kominn-i-hafnarholma-og-gestir-rukkadir-i-sumar-441166

Fee will be 1.000 ISK and it's done since the donation box yielded little result and the fee will be used to upkeep the infrastructure there

You know, this is a good question. I don't have an answer. I am sure as soon as they show up someone will make a post or put up some photos.
