An interesting phenomena with
Ásahreppur municipality (2942 km²) is that it is consisting from two
parts. The smaller part is in the lowland where the entire population of
about 190 residents is living, generally at agricultural farms. The
bigger and upper part is located in the mountains and is mostly undeveloped, with only
mountain cabins, hydroelectric power stations and mountain roads (including Sprengisandsvegur
road joining the northern and southern part of the island). (Similar
divided municipalities excist in Liechtenstein.) |
