Sandfell is an impressive looking rhyolite mountain in the shape of a ridge and reminds one of a tent because of it’s even slopes which are mostly free of cliffs and by it’s two darker peaks.
The hike starts close to Stóra-Sandfell farm, where you will find a sign. Walk the trail towards a fence then turn and walk up along it, then upwards by the trail on the northern ridge straight to the top which reaches 1157 m.
