About
Bíldudalur við Byltu runs across two spots in Bíldudalur village, in the Westfjords — one by the Byltan sports centre, one by the Sea Monster Museum. It sits beside the town's sports fields, with toilets, a washing machine and dryer, electricity, and motorhome waste disposal.
This campsite works from two locations in Bíldudalur: one at the Byltan sports centre on Hafnarbraut, the other by the Sea Monster Museum on Strandgata. It sits next to the town's sports fields, with toilets, hot and cold water, a washing machine and tumble dryer, electricity, and waste disposal for motorhomes. The town itself keeps you busy. There's the Sea Monster Museum and a music museum, plus boat trips for sailing or fishing. The valley of Selárdalur and the Jón Sigurðsson museum at Hrafneyri are close by. Further out, the Westfjords open up: the Dynjandi waterfall, a hot spring in Reykjafjörður, the beach at Rauðisandur, and the Látrabjarg bird cliffs, the largest in Europe. It's a first-come site, no booking taken.
Wild camping rules have tightened. Use designated campsites to stay on the right side of the law.
