BRÚ CAMP

Project Location Work Project

Brù is located in Hrutafjordur which is 36 km long fjord in Hunathing vestra. Based just off the main road, we are not set in a town, therefore the only way to get around is by car. Brú's stunning surrounding countryside offers the perfect tonic to relax and leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Around the house, you can find a lot of pure and unspoiled nature, waterfalls, rivers, canyons, and craters.

The purpose of the center is to protect nature in the area and to raise the awareness of sustainability among the locals and the visitors who are coming to the area.

This camp offers a wide variety of activities. However, our main activity is beach cleaning, as our aim is to clean up the entire Icelandic coast. We also work with the local community by helping to reforestation of the surrounding areas.

Fjarðabyggð is an association of villages in the fjords of eastern Iceland, offering beautiful views and picturesque fishing villages.

The town of Stöðvarfjörður, home to the WF House, is one of the charming villages in the area.

S T Ö D V A R F J Ö R D U R C A M P Iceland's East coast is indeed a spectacular place with narrow fjords and jagged peaks that bear witness to the Ice Age. The region is also known for its fertile farmland, which provides a stark contrast to the mountainous and icy landscape of the coast.

Although Stöðvarfjörður is a small village with about 200 inhabitants, its natural beauty and authentic charm make it a great destination.

On some days, when the weather is not favourable, we focus on renovation, painting or repair work around and inside the house.

The creative use of recovered waste to create art and practical objects is also an initiative to promote waste reduction and the circular economy. This camp offers an engaging and practical experience for those looking to help protect the environment !
