Árbæjarhverfi

Árbæjarhverfi occupies a lowland position on the northern side of Selfoss in Iceland’s Southern Region. This residential area stands in the broad plain of southwest Iceland, close to the Ölfusá, which flows past Selfoss toward the Atlantic. The town developed around a vital river crossing: Iceland’s first suspension bridge opened over the Ölfusá in 1891, giving Selfoss a lasting role as a service centre for the south. Road 1 runs through the town, while local shops, schools and everyday amenities make this a lived-in counterpoint to the region’s better-known excursions.
