Watch nature in action as the
Fagradalsfjall
volcano erupts in the Geldingadelur Valley, Iceland
The Land of Ice and Fire is once again living up to its name; a new
eruption is occurring in Iceland!
A strong seismic crisis began in the area near Fagradalsfjall since late
Feb 2021, interpreted as intrusion of magma at shallow depth. This led
to the first historic eruption of the volcano on 19 March 2021. Within
Geldingadalur valley, gleaming lava can be found running in molten
rivers and spurting in spectacular jets from Fagradalsfjall volcano.
There is heavy traffic up towards Fagradalsfjall in Iceland. Tourists
flock to experience the rare close contact with the earth's interior.
Over 260,000 people have visited the volcano so far.
