Kirkjufell mountain in West Iceland
Referred to as the Mountain shaped like an arrowhead in the Game of Thrones TV series - where it played a prominent role in series six and seven - Kirkjufell actually means Church Mountain, as it also resembles an Icelandic medieval turf church.
It is one of Iceland's iconic mountains and stands on the long Snæfellsnes peninsula in West Iceland. It is possible to climb it, but only for skilled mountaineers and a guide is necessary to breach the summit.

Climbing Kirkjufell Mountain in Iceland
Iceland's most famous mountain on a perfect day. Hiking the 468m from sea level to (nearly) the top with my girlfriend. We couldn't reach the summit as the final ascent involved a 8 metre vertical cliff that had to be free climbed. Falling would have meant serious injury so Abi persuaded me not to. It was an exhilarating climb and the views were spectacular. This mountain is a regular backdrop on Game Of Thrones!

Grundarfjörður is a small town, situated in the north of the Snæfellsnes peninsula in the west of Iceland. It is situated between a mountain range and the sea. The nearby mountain Kirkjufell forms a small peninsula.
The road to nearby Stykkishólmur crosses a big lava field, called Berserkjahraun. The name of the lava field comes from the Eyrbyggja saga, according to which two Berserkers were slain here by their master, because one of them fell in love with his master's daughter.

This arrowhead mountain is actually called Kirkjufell, but it is often referred to as “The Game of Thrones Mountain”, not only because of the iconic scenes in series seven but also because foreign visitors in Iceland find it really difficult to pronounce Icelandic place names.
It is often said that Kirkjufell is the most photographed mountain in Iceland, and with its isolated position and distinct shape, it is easy to see why. The 463-metre tall mountain has a sharp top, long, curved sides and at the base, visitors can find a lake which on clear days reflects a perfect mirror image of the mountain.
There is also a small but stunning three-pronged waterfall nearby which photographers love to capture on film, framing the majestic Kirkjufell mountain in the background.
Kirkjufell is located near the fishing town of Grundarfjörður on the northern side of Snæfellsnes, a peninsula famed for its diverse attractions. Aside from the stunning Kirkjufell mountain, you can find black pebble beaches, silvery waterfalls, rugged cliffs, and a majestic glacier, on this 90 km stretch of land.
Top locations in Iceland: Kirkjufell Mountain
Fans of the HBO series Game of Thrones will recognise Kirkjufell as a shooting location from Season 7 of Game of Thrones. The mountain is showcased from the scenes ‘North beyond the Wall’ when Jon Snow, The Hound and Jorah Mormont, amongst others, brave the wilderness in hopes of catching an undead wight.
It is often called ‘the most photographed mountain in Iceland’, because of its distinctly shaped peak and could be found on the north shore of Iceland’s Snaefellsnes Peninsula.

Kirkjufell Mountain and Sarah Arrives | Sep 5, 2018 | Iceland Day 2
Day 1 of our trip was action packed to the max, so Day 2 had to rise to meet those high goals. As Sarah would be meeting us for dinner, we decided to take a day trip to the West of Iceland and add one more photo to the most photographed mountain in Iceland - Kirkjufell mountain. I then surprise the group with surprise Harry Potter gifts!

Grundarfjörður est une petite ville située dans le nord de la péninsule de Snæfellsnes en Islande. Elle possède entre autres deux attraits touristiques majeurs: une superbe cascade (Kirkjufellfoss ) et une montagne (Kirkjufell ) dont la forme rappelle celle d'une église.
Lorsque nous sommes arrivés à Grundarfjörður, il y avait une tempête. Le vent était très puissant et la pluie était plus que cinglante.
Nous sommes donc allés faire un petit tour à la bibliothèque, histoire de vérifier la météo puisque le wifi était disponible à cet endroit. Nous avons dû nous rendre à l'évidence que ce mauvais temps durerait certainement jusqu'au lendemain.
Nous en avons profité pour prendre un café et manger une excellente gaufre coiffée d'une délicieuse crème fouettée, gracieuseté de la maison.
Cette journée-là, il y avait une fête et ces petites gourmandises étaient offertes gratuitement aux gens qui se présentaient à la bibliothèque!
Le ventre plein, nous nous sommes dirigés vers le stationnement faisant face à la cascade Kirkjufellsfoss. Malgré la température maussade, plusieurs personnes se dirigeaient péniblement vers cette cascade.
J'ai d'abord enfilé mon imperméable tandis qu'Alain et Mélanie avaient décidé de demeurer à bord du véhicule. J'ai tenté bien que mal de me rendre jusqu'à cette cascade, mais le vent était tellement puissant que j'avais de la difficulté à me tenir debout et j'ai eu un instant de panique.
Je suis retournée au camping-car et Alain et Mélanie ont finalement décidé de m'accompagner.
Les uns collés aux autres, nous avons bravé la tempête pour nous rendre jusqu'à la cascade. Le vélocité du vent était tellement élevée que l'eau de la cascade était soulevée par le vent et formait d'immenses embruns derrière la cascade. C'était vraiment un moment surréaliste!
Comme il était impossible de mettre le nez dehors, nous sommes demeurés dans le camping-car sur le stationnement près de la cascade. Nous devions y passer la nuit.
Avec ce vent qui agitait sans cesse le camping-car, je n'arrivais pas à dormir. Nous étions les seuls dans le stationnement, à la merci du vent. A l'occasion, d'autres camping-cars venaient s'installer près de nous, mais repartaient aussitôt!
Je ne me sentais pas en sécurité car je savais que des objets auraient pu être propulsés et j'avais même peur que le camping-car soit renversé tellement il tanguait.
J'ai donc demandé à mon conjoint si on pouvait aller se stationner dans un endroit plus sécuritaire. Nous sommes donc partis et après avoir fait quelques tentatives, nous avons finalement trouvé un endroit qui nous permettrait d'être à l'abri du vent.
Nous n'étions pas les seuls à cet endroit. J'ai tout de suite reconnu un camping-car qui avait rebroussé chemin après avoir tenté de passer la nuit à nos côtés sur le stationnement de la cascade.
Le lendemain, nous nous sommes réveillés et la tempête faisait toujours rage:

나는 이번 여정의 마지막 목적지로 향했다. 아이슬란드 서부 스나이펠스네스반도에 위치한 그륀다르피오르드. 이곳을 마지막 목적지로 찾은 이유는 아이슬란드인들의 영혼이 담긴 교회산이란 뜻의 키르큐펠을 보기 위해서다. 장엄하고 웅장하면서도 때 묻지 않은 순수한 모습, 아이슬란드의 자연을 그대로 옮겨 놓은 것 같다. 무사히 여행을 마치게 해주어 감사하다는 마음을 키르큐펠을 지키는 새들에게 전해본다. 바이킹들은 아이슬란드를 처음 발견한 후 얼음의 땅이란 이름을 붙여 숨기고 싶어 했다고 한다.

I turned to the last destination of this journey. The Gdansk Fjord is located on the Sinaefelsnes peninsula in western Iceland. The reason I came here as a final destination is to see Kirkcupel, the church mountain of the Icelandic soul. It seems to have transplanted the natural beauty of Iceland, with its majestic, magnificent and unspoiled pure appearance. I give my thanks to the birds who keep Kyrkupel to finish the trip safely. The Vikings said they wanted to conceal Iceland after they first discovered it.
[Iceland: Google Translator]
Ég sneri við síðasta áfangastað þessari ferð. The Gdansk Fjord er staðsett á Sinaefelsnes skaganum í vesturhluta landsins. Ástæðan fyrir að ég kom hingað sem endanlega áfangastað er að sjá Kirkcupel, kirkjan fjall íslensku sálarinnar. Það virðist hafa flutt náttúrufegurð landsins, með glæsilegu, stórkostlegt og óspillta hreinu útliti sínu. Ég þakka mínum fuglum sem halda Kyrkupel að klára ferðina á öruggan hátt. Víkingar sögðu þeir vildu leyna Ísland eftir að þeir uppgötva það fyrst.

Overview[edit]
The town received the right to do commerce in 1786. Around 1800, French merchants came to Iceland and lived in Grundarfjörður, where they constructed a church and a hospital of their own. The town has become rich through the fishing industry, and this wealth shows in the style of the original, luxurious houses being built.
The road to nearby Stykkishólmur crosses a big lava field, called Berserkjahraun. The name of the lava field comes from the Eyrbyggja saga, according to which two Berserkers were slain here by their master, because one of them fell in love with his master's daughter.
