Camping is fun and it's one of the best activities for every traveler to experience the great outdoors. However, Iceland takes camping to a whole new level because travelers are allowed to camp under a volcano.
The Telegraph reported that it's perfectly normal for campers to set up a camp under the shadow of a volcano. In fact, it's one of the highlights of the Iceland Wilderness five-night tour. SuperJeep is behind this amazing tour that will take travelers to the stunning Volcano Huts in Iceland's Husadalur Valley.
The whole location of the amazing trip can be found in Eyjafjallajokull. Most people call this place Eyo for short and it's a mountain glacier located north of Skogar. According to Iceland On The Web, it's a mountain range that was formed since the Ice Age because of multiple volcanic eruptions in the area.
Eyo is a cone shaped glacier and ranks 6th as the largest glacier in Iceland. It covers an area of 78 square kilometers and its ice cap covers the active Eyjafjallajokull volcano.
In fact, back in 2010, the Eyjafjallajokull volcano erupted on the 14th of April after 200 years. It caused a lot of flight delays and cancellations in Europe which affected almost 10 million travelers coming from all over the world.
The eruption of the Eyo volcano lasted for almost 10 weeks and people documented that whole event. It was probably the reason that people are now attracted to visit Iceland. More travelers are seeking the thrill of witnessing the powerful volcano while camping under its shadows.
Another attraction that travelers would see in Iceland is the Northern Lights. Eyjafjallajokull, along with the other glaciers surrounding the area channels the aurora borealis into the valley.
Iceland is such a beautiful place to travel to with its natural wonders and stunning scenery. It's the perfect destination for the adventurous soul to experience nature at its finest.
