A new management plan has been drafted up for Þingvellir National Park in South Iceland, reports Morgunblaðið. The draft plan has been updated to reflect the increasing number of tourists visiting the park and its aim is to protect the old parliament site and limit traffic to the area. Companies operating within the tourism sector and the Þingvellir management team worked together on the draft plan.
Þingvellir became a national park as a result of legislation passed in 1928 to protect the remains of the parliament site by creating the first national park in Iceland.
