Part of the year, depending on the season, you have animals as neighbours such as sheep (June-October), sometimes horses and occasionally the arctic fox (hard to spot).
Kolsstaðir is Ideal for hiking, meditating, outdoor- and artistic activities as well as observing the Northern lights when they are visible (October-April). Hiking trails can be found just steps away from the cottage as well as sheep trails that head in all directions for your private encounter. The views are broad; out to the ocean, towards the surrounding mountains and into the valleys.

A 4WD vehicle is necessary to get to Kolsstaðir during the winter. There is a gravel road from the main road up the hill to the cottage. It is cleared of snow on a regular basis with help from the neighboring farmer but it happens during the winter that you have to you leave your car at the bottom of the hill and bring your luggage up with you in case of your vehicle being snowed in. Driving in Iceland during the winter requires a 4wd. as well as studded tires. (From november - april).
We recommend a visit to the nearby fjords for bird watching and occasional seal. A tour around Snæfellsnes peninsula, to the westfjords as well as west Iceland inland valleys like the Langjokull glacier, Husafell, Krauma spa and Hraunfossar/barnafoss waterfalls.
Some sightseeing can be done when driving to or from Kolsstaðir from Reykjavik. Good Paved roads are most of the way. (Road 1) 3km (2 miles) of gravel road takes you the rest of the way to Kolsstaðir. Consider driving Whalefjord instead of taking the tunnel for a more scenic drive (45 min longer drive). (Only summer!).
