Pseudo craters are geological formations that are rare nationally as well as globally. Pseudo craters are rare lava formations formed by steam explosions where thin-flowing lava flows over lakes and swamps. The craters are among the most significant natural monuments in Iceland and by Lake Mývatn they are particularly beautiful in shape and form the framework of the lake.
Dimmuborgir was formed in an eruption that occurred
in the area 2,300 years ago.
As lava flowed across the area, it passed over a lake, causing it to boil. This both quickened the cooling of the lava and caused pillars of steam to shatter parts of it. After it solidified, Dimmuborgir area became defined by large stacks of rock and many caves and caverns, caused by bubbles of intense steam.
As such, many have compared Dimmuborgir to a medieval castle, with its many hidden chambers and its rising towers.
Grjótagjá is a small lava cave near Lake Mývatn in Iceland. It has a thermal spring inside. In the early 18th century the outlaw Jón Markússon lived there and used the cave for bathing. Until the 1970s Grjótagjá was a popular bathing site.
Hverir Geothermal Area is located in Northeast Iceland.
You can see many smoking fumaroles and boiling mud pots, surrounded by sulphur crystals of many different colours. Sulphur gives the area an overwhelming smell.
Dettifoss is powered by glacier river which flows from the largest glacier in Iceland, Vatnajökull.
Dettifoss is about 100 meters (300 feet) wide and the water falls about 45 meters (150 feet) down into the canyon.
Selfoss is a waterfall in the river Jökulsá á Fjöllum in the North of Iceland. The river drops over a number of waterfalls over about 30 km before flowing into Öxarfjörður, a bay of the Arctic Sea.
