Iceland Named the Safest Country for Travel in 2025

"Fields of lupins in bloom frame a small town church in a pastoral, low-traffic setting, captured in a photograph credited to Marco Bottigelli/Getty Images. The image accompanied an article about the nation's top ranking in a 2025 travel-safety report; the report highlights features reflected in the scene, noting it has "one major road" and is "never crowded," which together convey a strong sense of rural tranquility. The same report adds a practical caveat about volcanic activity while also remarking on locals' relaxed attitude toward it." - Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca Stacey Leasca is an award-winning journalist and co-founder of Be a Travel Writer, an online course for the next generation of travel journalists.

Iceland Itineraries: From 1 Weekend to 1 Month (Updated 2025)

"I climbed the hill to the small Vík i Myrdal Church for a complete vista overlooking the town of Vík and the ocean — it’s a short stop that rewards you with a scenic viewpoint and a coffee at a local café afterward." - Matthew Kepnes

Vík í Mýrdal Church in South Iceland is a charming gem! Perched on a hill, this iconic white church with a red roof offers stunning views of the village, Reynisdrangar sea stacks, and the ocean. Its simple, classic design feels peaceful and welcoming. Easily accessible with nearby parking, it’s perfect for a quick visit or photos, especially at sunset when the light is magical. The surrounding wildflowers and serene atmosphere add to its charm. Visiting early avoids crowds. This picturesque church is a must-see for anyone exploring Vík’s breathtaking coastal beauty!

Very picturesque church from the hillside or beach. It’s stunning in both directions.

It’s an easy 5 min drive if you are in Vik. The view from the top of the hill where the church is located is beautiful with a view of the ocean and the city.

It’s a small church in the vik city on the mountain side. The view of the ocean underneath is awesome. The sorrounding mountain is beautiful. From this viewpoint the whole of the vik city can be seen. There Many point to snap beautiful pictures.

A charming church on the hill. Perched above the village, Vík i Myrdal Church offers stunning views of the black sand beach, Reynisdrangar sea stacks, and ocean cliffs. Its red roof and white walls make it one of Iceland’s most iconic photo spots. Peaceful, scenic, and worth the short uphill detour.

Beautiful small church. The one thing I didn't like was the parking around the church. It could be amazing if it's natural field of grass. The view on the ocean is amazing from above.

This a popular and very picturesque spot in a town. The views from the hill are amazing.

Not the most impressive tourist site. A small, white clad church sitting in the middle of an asphalt moonscape, big enough to accommodate the frequent busses that pull up and expel hoardes of miserable looking tourists. The views over Vik are good though
