Our Surroundings

Make a day of it

Discover a quieter, more authentic side of Iceland, just minutes from Reykjavík.

Just 2 minutes away you'll find Bessastaðir, the historic residence of the President of Iceland. Nearby, you can also visit Krókur, a traditional Icelandic turf house where you can experience how Icelanders lived in centuries past. In the area, you may also spot Icelandic horses and sheep grazing in the surrounding. 

 

Only 5 minutes away is the charming harbor town of Hafnarfjörður, a hidden gem loved by locals. Stroll through its picturesque streets, browse local shops, relax in cozy cafés or enjoy a meal at one of its excellent restaurants. 

And if you'd like to experience one of Iceland's favorite traditions, you'll also find a fantastic local swimming pool featuring hot tubs, indoor and outdoor pools, a sauna, a slide and even a wave pool.

Can't make it to the workshop? 

Don't worry—the wool monsters have spread across Iceland! You'll find them hiding in over 25 shops and attractions around the country, waiting to be adopted.

Eco-Friendly & Unique

To maximize sustainability, we upcycle leftover fabric scraps from local clothing manufacturers to create the hands, feet, and horns. Because of this, no two Skrimslis look exactly alike.
