Kirkjufell
Snæfellsnes Peninsula, West Iceland
nature
A striking 463-meter mountain on Iceland’s Snæfellsnes Peninsula, often described as the most photographed mountain in the country. Its distinctive, symmetrical shape rises dramatically from the coastline near the town of Grundarfjörður. Frequently paired with the nearby Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall, it creates one of Iceland’s most iconic landscapes. The mountain is also known from Game of Thrones, where it appeared as the “Arrowhead Mountain.”
