In 2008 a sycamore at Borgarbraut 27 in Borgarnes was nominated as the Tree of the Year. The purple-leaf variant of sycamore trees is rare in Iceland and this tree is a particularly fine example of the type. The tree was planted sometime in 1923-1925. It was measured at the nomination ceremony and was 8,83 m in height, with a circumference of 166 cm at 50 cm height.
