The day of the Settlers on Viðey Island next Sunday

Viðey Island is full of fun and next on the summer program is a family event that goes under the name The day of the Settlers, treasure hunt and kites.

We have teamed up with the scout group Frumbyggjar (Settlers) to invite guests of all ages to put themselves in the shoes of settlers, take part in a treasure hunt in the form of orientation and encourage all kite owners to come to Viðey Island in an attempt to brake the Icelandic record in kite flying that was set on Viðey in 2010.

Together with our guests the scouts will raise a little Settlers village and teach participants how to start a fire and other necessary survival skills like roasting hot dogs and popping popcorn on an open fire.Program14:30 Program opens14:45 Treasure hunt started16:00 Kite flying by Viðeyjarstofa16:30 Program endsIn Viðeyjarstofa café you can enjoy a light meal and other refreshments; e.g. mussels, cured salmon, herring, sandwiches, waffles, pastries and more.The Viðey ferry leaves Skarfabakki pier in Sundahöfn every 60 minutes from 11:15 to 17:15 and more often if needed.
