Thingvellir - Iceland's only World Heritage Site
Tony Fenton
Thingvellir - Iceland's only World Heritage Site
Situated on the floor of a giant geological rift in the Southwest corner of
Iceland is Thingvellir National Park. Taking the form of a natural amphitheatre,
Thingvellir is a stunningly beautiful place that sees the North Atlantic Ridge
carve its way northwards across the island. But it is not only on the strength
of the area's outstanding natural beauty that Thingvellir is listed as a UNESCO
World Heritage Site. No, there's a lot more to Thingvellir than meets the eye!
The World's First Parliament
In 930AD the people of Iceland chose this protected location as the venue for
a gathering of Icelandic chieftains. The gathering resulted in the establishment
of the world's first parliament where tribal representatives came to settle
differences through diplomacy and (mostly) peaceful initiatives. Named as the
Althing, this open-air assembly ran for a two-week period every year. Representatives
would journey from all over Iceland to put their cases forward to the Althing,
helping to shape the laws of Iceland through the ages.
Fragments of stone and turf booths on which representatives took their places
can still be seen within the park today. To get a good overview of the area
where the assembly once gathered visitors should climb the nearby cliff of Logberg.
It is from here where some of the most influential members of parliament would
have addressed the assembly.
Getting to Thingvellir
Thingvellir is 31km east of the capital Reykjavik. International travellers
should fly into Reykjavik airport and pick up a hire car. From the airport it
is advisable to travel eastwards on route 41 towards Reykjavik and then pick
up route 36 towards Thingvellir National Park. Car hire can be booked in advance
