Sólheimajökull
Stunning but rapidly shrinking glacier
Category
Message from Jan In Iceland
Sólheimajökull is a popular glacier in Iceland, easily accessible from Reykjavík and known for its stunning ice formations and crevasses. It's part of the Mýrdalsjökull ice cap, which covers the infamous Katla volcano. Sadly Sólheimajökull is rapidly shrinking due to climate change.
Good place for photos or guided glacier tour
