One of the nicest streets in one of the nicest and most beutiful towns in Iceland, maybe the world. Somtimes called the Beverly-Hills of Vestmannaeyjar-town. At the edge of the town, in the slopes of Helgafell Volcano this street is a wonderful place to grow up at. Here you have two volcanos in your backyard and almost no traffic on the streets so the kids can play quite safe in the neighbourhood. The street lies about 100m above see level so the wiew from many of the houses is magnificent. When the weather is clear you can easily see the up to the mainland, with it´s many mountains and glaciers, the closest one being Eyjafallajökull-glacier. This surely is a place to visit.
