The next landmass before docking is Heimaklettur. At 915 feet, the mount is the tallest in the Westman Islands. The craggy escarpment towers over the ferry as it sails by. Home Rock is very popular among adventurous tourists. The trailhead is at Eiðisvegur Street on the north side of the harbor across from where you dock. A very unusual feature is the series of wooden ladders used to climb towards the top. But after 30 or more minutes, your reward is a spectacular view of Vestmannaeyjar and the surrounding islands.
