Enjoy views over Europe's northernmost capital from the tower

From the top of Hallgrímskirkja, Reykjavík's landmark, you have an impressive panorama over Europe's northernmost capital. The church tower gives you an unforgettable view across the city and the surrounding countryside. In clear weather you can see the gentle waves of the Atlantic and the surrounding mountains. This view is a particular highlight at sunrise or sunset.

Hallgrímskirkja is easy to spot in the centre of Reykjavík. There is a fee to go up the tower, but a ticket is well worth it. There is parking nearby, although spaces are limited. It is easy to reach for a short stop, followed by a visit to one of the surrounding restaurants. The way up the tower is well signposted and the hourly ringing of the bells provides a musical backdrop to your visit.
