The Giantess’s Mountains
The name Kerlingarfjöll translates to "Old Woman Mountains" in English, referring to the distinct shape of the peaks. The range is made up of several volcanic cones and domes, with the highest peak reaching over 1,477 meters (4,846 feet) in elevation.
One of the main attractions of Kerlingarfjöll is its geothermal area, which features hot springs, fumaroles, and colorful mineral deposits.
