### 2/5 — Good idea, poor execution

*2022-09-04*

Just way too many coding errors and incorrect info.

The map link marked as Valhol leads to a blank page. The Lögberg map link leads to the Silfra description. (Lögberg is the most historically important part of the park, so this is a glaring error.) The trails / walking paths are marked as random points on the map with no indication of the actual path or trail… they could at least link to the park map for more detail. The Information Centre winter opening hours are incorrect on the map link, and the link also states the exhibition is free, though it isn’t. Drekkingarhylur is mistranslated as “Drawning Pool.” 

Additionally, the guided tours and “treasure hunts” alluded to in the app description don’t actually exist.
