Aaah, Iceland! The Land of Fire and Ice. Iceland is one of the few countries that has truly amazed me from start to finish. The country is one of those places that when you look out over the landscape your mouth drops open in awe. It has been rated by travelers as world's eight most beautiful country, and that might be an underestimation, in my humble opinion!
Why? Waterfalls are everywhere (!), you can scuba or snorkel between continents, you can go inside a vulcano, there are loads of exploding geysers, you can go whale watch, the sun shines at night, it is one of the best countries to view the Northern lights, and their fish soup is delicious (and I can think of many more reasons...)!
Today, enjoy a photo series I have made in Iceland during my 2-week trip in 2016.
Skógafoss, a 62m high waterfall
Icelandic moss, the first plant to grow on the many large lava fields in the country
The first geysers of the trip
Day two the road allready turned into a dirt road
Magical colours and houses in the middle of nowhere
Fljótsdalur waterfall
Church in Vik
Fjarorárgljúfir. The oldest gorge in Iceland, 2 million years old. This where the tectonic plates are moving away from each other - put in black & white for some extra drama ;-)
Glaciers at Jökulsárlón
... and all that connected by the most beautiful highways!
... and what are your favourite sights of Iceland? Tell me more!
You're making me want to visit Iceland even more! :-)
Did you get to see hot springs too?
