A thousand thanks!
Around a thousand cheerful residents of Hafnarfjörður and other guests took part in a variety of fun walks for all ages in all kinds of weather during the summer of 2023. Weekly for 13 weeks, from 7 June to 30 August, everyone interested had the opportunity to take part in the City of Hafnarfjörður's organised guided cultural and health walks. The walks are a collaboration between the Hafnarfjörður Library, the Hafnarfjörður Folk Museum, Hafnarborg and the Healthy City of Hafnarfjörður.
An ideal opportunity for learning and improving your health.
This is the fifth summer that the City of Hafnarfjörður has organised free cultural and health walks, most of which took about an hour. The summer's walks were very varied and included a family walk on Stórhöfði, a city centre walk, a rose walk in Höfðaskóg, an adventure expedition in Hellisgerði, an elf walk, and a history, design and planning walk in Víðistaðatún. On these walks, residents and visitors not only hear interesting facts about the town, but the walks also provide an ideal opportunity for some healthy exercise.
