Skútustaðir est un petit village d'Islande où l'on retrouve une très grande concentration de pseudo-cratères situés autour du lac Stakholstjorn.
Jadis, une coulée de lave a recouvert les lieux et lorsque la lave est entrée en contact avec l'eau du lac, des explosions de vapeur ont créé ces formations particulières.

Pseudocraters - Skútustaðagígar Iceland
Lake Myvatn, in northern Iceland, is home to the Skútustaðagígar Pseudocraters. Pseudocraters formed when explosions of gas from volcanic lava flowing over wetlands. The .pseudocraters are about ninety minutes from Aukreyri, Iceland. Birdwatching is a popular activity in environmentally protected areas of Lake Myvatn and the Skútustaðagígar Pseudocraters.
The Land of Ice & Fire (Part 16 - Skútustaðagígar)
Skútustaðagígar is the name of a row of pseudo-craters in north Iceland. The Skútustaðagígar Craters are found in the Lake Mývatn area, which is very volcanic, being near to the Krafla volcano system. The nature of the lake itself and the volcanism of the region both led to the creation of these unusual formations. During an eruptions, lava ran across the area of Skútustaðagígar, which at the time was swampy wetlands. The heat caused steam eruptions, which resulted in their crater-like shape. As they were not the sources of lava, or volcanoes in themselves, they are not considered true craters.

L'Austral Iceland Cruise Day 5: Akureyi Tours - Ho-hum Pseudo Craters
The entire day tour off the L'Austral circled Lake Myvatn visiting the famous boiling mud pots of Hverarond and now stopped at Skutustadagigar Pseudo Craters.
These Pseuo craters were formed when water trapped beneath flowing lava boiled up to the surface creating what looks like a volcanic cone. I thought they were underwhelming. Lunch was served in the Community Center across the road and Tauck Tour group got a chance to try a type of Molasses bread baked underground by thermal heat. This part of the day was ho-hum, but there was still more to see...
ICELAND: Skútustaðagígar
Recorded September 5, 2008.
Our final stop on our tour of northern Iceland was Skútustaðagígar. The shores along the south side of the lake are home to many pseudocraters, formed during volcanic eruptions when lava flowed over wetlands, eventually resulting in steam eruptions and forming these medium-sized craters.
