A region of towering volcanoes, huge glaciers, cascading waterfalls and rugged lava fields, south Iceland is an arresting natural playground. Home to Vatnajökull National Park (Europe’s largest), a string of active volcanoes, and vast tracts of untouched wilderness, it’s a place where the sheer scale of the landscape is hard to comprehend. You can marvel at the icebergs in Jökulsárlón, take a flightseeing trip from Skaftafell, hike around Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, or explore the black-sand beaches and basalt columns of Reynisfjara.
