The Six Rivers Ecosystem

Six Rivers Iceland is primarily aimed at the protection of the North Atlantic salmon. We hope, however, that as a consequence of the improvement in the rivers’ ecosystems other fauna will benefit from the enhancement and protection of the local environment.

 

A walk along the banks of any of our rivers or along the nearby coastline will yield an abundance of life. The illustrations below give you a flavour of some of the birds, mammals and plant life that are particularly indigenous to this part of Iceland.

Fauna & Flora

Iceland is a mecca for ornithologists and you will find many varieties of sea birds, waders, water birds and land birds at the Six Rivers Project.

Much of the northern part of Iceland is marshy or tundra, with the vegetation being predominantly mosses, lichens and sedges. Typical is Iceland moss, a lichen which grows abundantly forming mats on the tundras and mountain slopes and which can provide “famine food” in times of necessity.
