Trölladyngja

Trölladyngja is a 275-meter-high volcanic mountain on the Reykjanes Peninsula, located at the northern end of Núpshlíðarháls ridge. Nearby stands Grænadyngja, which rises to 393 meters and closely resembles Trölladyngja in shape. The two mountains are often referred to as twins and are collectively known as Dyngjurnar.

Despite their names, Trölladyngja and Grænadyngja are not true shield volcanoes and do not belong to that volcanic type. Nevertheless, they are of great geological interest and illustrate the diverse volcanic formations found on the Reykjanes Peninsula.

The southern slopes of the Dyngjurnar are particularly colorful and host the high-temperature geothermal area known as Sogin, where geothermal activity strongly shapes the landscape. The area is popular with hikers and nature enthusiasts.

Both Trölladyngja and Grænadyngja are easy to climb, and their summits offer excellent panoramic views across the Reykjanes Peninsula. The upper part of Trölladyngja is somewhat rocky, adding character to the ascent.

Several exploratory geothermal drill holes have been made in the Trölladyngja area as part of past plans to harness geothermal energy. These plans were eventually abandoned, as the drilling did not produce sufficiently promising results.
