Skip the Golden Circle—Take Iceland's New Arctic Coast Way Instead

"Glaumbær in Skagafjörður features historic turf-roofed farmhouses built during the Age of the Settlements, circa 900 A.D., transformed into a living museum. The property’s timber structures were added as recently as the 1870s, and the last inhabitants didn’t vacate until 1947."
