Frequently
asked
questions
Where is Gerpir?
Gerpir is a cape on the coast of East Iceland, Iceland. Check the map on this page for its exact position and the route in.
How do I get to Gerpir?
Gerpir is in East Iceland. Some Iceland headlands are reached on paved roads, others by gravel tracks that end at a small car park. Check live road conditions on this page before you drive.
Can you see puffins at Gerpir?
Many Icelandic capes hold seabird colonies, and puffins are ashore from roughly April to mid-August. Whether Gerpir has them depends on the spot — keep well back from cliff edges, which can be undercut.
Is Gerpir safe to visit?
Take care at any Icelandic cape: cliff edges are wind-exposed and can be undercut, and low points on the south coast are exposed to sneaker waves that surge up the shore without warning. Stay back from edges and never turn your back on the sea.
