Eyjafjallajökull is a well-known volcano and glacier located in South Iceland, situated between Mýrdalsjökull and Tindfjallajökull. The glacier covers a volcanic system that has been active for centuries and is one of Iceland’s most famous natural landmarks.
The 2010 eruption of Eyjafjallajökull gained global attention when an ash cloud disrupted air travel across large parts of Europe. The eruption highlighted the power of Icelandic nature and the far-reaching impact of volcanic activity.
Today, Eyjafjallajökull is a popular destination for visitors and nature enthusiasts. The surrounding area offers dramatic scenery, waterfalls, lush lowlands, and impressive views of the glacier, which stands as a symbol of the interaction between fire and ice in Iceland.
Jökullinn liggur á Suðurlandi.
