East Iceland aka: Austurland,Austfirðir

and hike up Door Mountain.

The forest is nice and Atlavik area is great for camping. This is the place to come to just relax and get with nature. There are other more exciting places to go in Iceland, but if you just want to relax, this is a laid back area to do so.

This is the least visited area of Iceland and one of the most rewarding in my opinion. It has pretty villages nestled in fjords, forested areas with pretty lakes and creeks, and farming country with cattle. Now that Highway 1 is paved from Akureyri to Egilsstadir, I bet more folks will check out this little visited area.
