Did you know? Sveitarfélagið Ölfus

Olfus is one of Iceland's smallest municipalities by population, with around 1,200 residents spread across a scenic rural area south of Reykjavik.

The region sits on geothermally active ground, with hot springs and steam vents that have been harnessed for heating and power generation for decades.

Olfus merged with the nearby municipality of Gunnarsholti in 2019 to form the current Sveitarfelagi Olfus.

The area is home to traditional Icelandic horse farms, where the hardy native Icelandic horse breed—unchanged since Viking times—still roams the countryside.

Olfus lies within easy reach of the Golden Circle route, making it a quieter alternative base for exploring Iceland's most famous attractions without the crowds of Reykjavik.
