Beschrijving
Höfði Woodland Park is located on the eastern side of Lake Mývatn and consists of a beautiful forested area adjacent to the lake. Several pathways lead through a diverse habitat with scattered trees, strange rock formations and great views over the lake. The park is a good spot for local breeding birds, such as Barmsijs, Koperwiek and Winterkoning. During migration, anything can show up here! Especially finches, like Vink, Keep and Goudvink have been seen in the past.
The rocky parts are particular good for Alpensneeuwhoen. The area is also used as hunting ground by Giervalk.
The views over the lake provide observations of many species of waterbird, like IJslandse Brilduiker, Topper, Grauwe Franjepoot, Middelste Zaagbek and IJseend.
