GJÁSTYKKI
Volcanic eruption site, an active area that shows how volcanism is still present on the island
This volcanic eruption site on the Atlantic Rift is an active area 5 km north of Krafla, which shows how much volcanism is still present on the island. On site, you can see the cracks in an area where the continents are moving away by 2 cm per year and the craters are still smoking. It is also possible to visit the Hrafntinnuhryggur obsidian ridges. A natural wonder not to be missed, the feeling of being on another planet is guaranteed. The site is protected, so you must go with a guide.
