Teigarhorn is a protected coastal landscape near Djúpivogur in East Iceland and one of Iceland's best-known zeolite mineral localities. The protected area includes coastal cliffs, historic landscape and Gljúfur in Búlandsá. The gorge and surrounding mineral-bearing rock are part of the wider Teigarhorn destination rather than a separate top-level attraction. Visitors may enjoy the landscape and marked routes, but minerals and geological formations must not be disturbed or collected.
