Stóri Dímon

Great Dímon is the name of a landmark that landmark East Landeyjar, Fljótshlíð, and West Eyjafjöll. Great Dimon has a sister mountain called Litla Dimon or Little Dimon. The name is thought to come from Latin, meaning twin mountains or two alike. It has also been said that the word means haystack, which is certainly reminiscent of a haystack surrounded by golden fields. 

Near the mountain, a sign has been erected by the Saga Center of Hvolsvöllur, which tells of battles fought in the area during the times of the settlement of Iceland in the most famous of Icelandic sagas, Njálssaga. The mountain is only 178 meters high and is a fun hike for adults and children.
