23 May - Laxdæla saga
Borðeyri appears in Laxdæla saga, Grettis saga, Vatnsdæla saga, and several others. In Laxdæla saga it is where Örn, the stýrimaður, and hirðmaður of King Harold Gunnhildarson anchored his ship. Today, it still has a small harbour.
And then a drive along the splendidly scenic Laxádalur - the valley through which the Laxá (Salmon River) flows.
