This is a pictorial map in which the author highlights the country's main tourist attractions, focusing on Hringvegur, the first road to be built in the country and the only one that completely circumnavigates it.

Following the tradition of Olaus Magnus's Carta Marina, The illustration also shows a variety of monsters surrounding the island.
