Fláajökull Glacier
East Iceland, IcelandAbout this experience
Fláajökull is an outlet glacier from Vatnajökull.
The area offers spectacular views of the ever-receding glacier that has receded 2 km during the last one hundred years, leaving a glacial lagoon in its wake.
The area is an excellent destination for all interested in witnessing how the glacier movement shapes the surrounding landscape.
A marked hiking path connects the Fláajökull area with the Haukafell forestry project.
