Hegranes

Island in the Héraðsvötn river, Iceland

Hegranes is the name of the Icelandic peninsula between the branches of the Héraðsvötn river in Skagafjörður. Although Hegranes is called a peninsula, it is actually an island about 15 kilometers long with a fairly tall, rocky headland covered in vegetation. Héraðsvötn's western estuary hews closely to the west side of the peninsula, but there is a large sandy area before the peninsula reaches the eastern estuary. Off the southern end of the peninsula, there is a delta called Austara-Eylendið with diverse avian life and vegetation, which is home to a natural heritage site.
