Kerlingarfjoll

The name Kerlingarfjöll means "Old Woman Mountains" in English, due 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 in elevation. One of the main attractions of Kerlingarfjöll is its geothermal area: hot springs, fumaroles, and colorful mineral deposits. The geothermal activity creates a surreal and otherworldly atmosphere, with steam rising from the ground and vibrant hues of red, yellow, and green contrasting against the barren landscape.

 

There are various hiking trails leading through the mountains and valleys. The trails offer options for both experienced hikers and beginners. Along the way, hikers can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, glaciers, and rivers.

 

Pano from 9 photos in vertical, can you see the hikers along the hiking trails? ;))
