Located near the eastern shore of Lake Myvatn in North Iceland stands Hverfjall, an impressive 4500 year old tephra explosion crater, measuring 396 meter (1,300 ft) high and 1 km in diameter. If you walk up the steep slope of this massive black ash cone, you are rewarded with an incredible view of the crater as well as the surrounding landscape. To provide a little perspective of the size, those tiny specs on the top right side are groups of people walking around the crater's rim. There are also people on the opposite side, but they are too small to see without enlarging the image.
Gullfoss, in Iceland's Golden Circle, is a massive waterfall which is composed of two distinct steps which fall at 90-degree angles to one another. The upper tier drops 12.5 metres (41 ft) and spans nearly 240 metres (800 ft) across, with the left side (pictured here) cascading down a nice rock staircase. The right side (not shown) rushes into a narrow throat then plunges down 32 metres (105 ft) into the lower canyon. This foss definite must see in Iceland.
Captured here around 10pm is the picturesque village of Vík í Mýrdal. Vik is the southernmost village in Iceland, located on Route 1 around 180 km (110 mi) southeast of Reykjavík, on the coast of the northern Atlantic Ocean. Home to several amazing sites that should top your list while visiting Iceland, Vik is a definite must see destination.
