The Katla glacier is a tongue, a flow of ice that comes from Mýrdals glacier, Icelands forth largest glacier.
At the base of the Katla glacier are many caves, created by water which pours down the glacier in the warmer months of the year.
The area is fascinating, raw nature at its best, proper movie making landscapes.
Crystal blue ice caves, rugged Icelandic nature and towering mountains of ice.
