Some kind of oasis

Dyngjuháls / Gæsavötn / Hníflar

Beautiful rope lava on Dyngjuháls

Meltwater and its source

Dirty ice on Dyngjujökull

Vonarskarð and Tungnafellsjökull far behind barren plains

Gæsavötn: Two oasis like lakes with great vistas the Vatnajökull and especially the Bárðarbunga.

The Vonarskarð, a weather divide...

Tiny tent and big clouds.

Gæsavötn

Bleak

Rjúpnabrekkukvísl: Hard to pronounce and to also to ford. I tried it at 04:30 in the morning... with success.

The Skjálfandafljót at Gjóstuklif

Faces of Hníflar I

Faces of Hníflar II

Bárðarbunga. With 2010m the highest point of the Vatnajökull. Below it's blanked of ice sleeps a central volcano with one of the biggest calderas of iceland.
