The Tour

A Journey towards the Center of the Earth

Enter Þríhnúkagígur volcano and descend into the only accessible lava chamber on planet Earth. What awaits you down there is truly magnificent.

The Volcano

Þríhnúkagígur

The volcano’s name Þríhnúkagígur, mostly unpronounceable for anyone other than locals, would be directly translated as ‘Three Peaks Crater’. No worries, it is safely dormant and has been for over 4.000 years.
