welcome to Simbahöllin


SCROLL DOWN

welcome to Simbahöllin


Simbahöllin is a cozy, old-style coffeehouse at the edge of the world.

We are located in an old grocery store from 1915, which we restored and converted into a coffeehouse. Most of the original shop interior is still intact today.

We serve quality coffee and tea, as well as home-made cakes and soups. Our Belgian waffle with homemade rhubarb jam and cream has become legendary!

We are open daily from June 1st to September 1st.

Stop in to relax and enjoy some fresh food and the beautiful surroundings!

Horse riding in the westfjords


Horse riding in the westfjords


During the summer we offer guided tours through the breathtaking Sanda valley in the "Westfjords Alps," on our friendly Icelandic horses. Three tours depart daily from our stables just a few kilometers outside Þingeyri, but we run according to how many bookings we have. Our standard rides are ideal for beginners and less-experienced riders, as well as families.

We have professional fat bikes for rent on a full- or half-day basis for self-guided adventures. In the area around Þingeyri there are riding routes for all levels - from the challenging Svalvogar circut to a more leisurely ride to the bottom of the fjord or to the lighthouse and back. Mountain biking is a great way to get up close and personal with the landscape at your own pace.

arts and culture


arts and culture


When we opened Simbahöllin, we wanted it to become a cultural hub and to create an environment to bring more arts and events to Þingeyri. We host live music, performances, and art exhibitions, and in the summer we have work by local artists, as well as handicraft on display.

In 2015 we finally realized a longtime dream of establishing our own art residency. We now run the Westfjords Residency, bringing international artists into a dialogue with our beautiful village.
