Beschreibung
The Laxá River is located on the western side of Lake Mývatn and flows out of the lake towards the bay of Húsavík. It's a fast flowing river and provides an ideal habitat for Kragenente, which can be observed great from this spot. Small flocks can be seen resting on the shoreline. Other species that can be found here are Spatelente and sometimes Gänsesäger.
The shores are a good spot for breeding waders, like Bekassine and Rotschenkel.
