2 Best Sights in West Iceland and Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Iceland

The main goal here is to give locals and visitors a peek at the lives of a farmer and farm animals. Háafell mainly cares for Icelandic goats, which are endangered, but they also keep sheep, chickens, horses, dogs, and cats. You can visit the farm on a tour or just browse the shop for products made on-site.

People flock here for the award-winning ice cream, but it's the educational side of the visit that will keep you coming back. Located in a valley in the rolling mountain ranges of West Iceland, Erpsstaðir might just be the most scenic farm you'll ever see. Ask for a tour and, depending on when you're there, you may see calves being fed or get a quick lesson on how the couple who own the small farm make their delicious ice cream.
