Our First Glacier Trek - Svínafellsjökull Glacier, Iceland
The Svínafellsjökull Glacier on the south east coast of Iceland, it stretches down from the massive ice cap Vatnajökull.
This glacier was used as a film location for Interstellar as the ‘Mann’ ice planet. It was also used as a location for Game of Thrones and Batman Begins.
We take a trek over the glacier which is sprinkled with the black ash from the last eruption in the area (2011). The surface of ice exposed to the sun is white (the sun layer) but underneath the ice is a rich blue.
There are various hikes you can take over this spectacular landscape, we went for the easy one which is more of a trek but you do get to wear crampons and have an ice pick.

Iceland - Svínafellsjökull Glacier
The Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon is a place that no traveler should miss. The lagoon is located at the ring road an hour drive from Skaftafell. Jökulsárlón is well known for its spectacular beauty and large amount of floating icebergs. It is one of the biggest attractions here in Iceland.
The lagoon lies at the tip of a glacier's tongue, where ice bergs regularly break off and fill the lagoon. Stepping on the ice is dangerous, it can break or flip.
It's a famous spot, movies have been filmed there (Tomb Raider, Die Another Day) and there are day tours you can book that from Reykjavik that will take you here during the summer months. We drove here ourselves, and getting there is quite easy, as it's right off of Route 1. We were in awe to see those milky blue icebergs floating in the water!

Svinafellsjokull Glacier Winter Hike Iceland
Glacier hike in Iceland Jan. 20, 2017 on Svinafellsjokull Glacier, Iceland with Extreme Iceland. It had been raining most of the night and half of the hike which wash all the snow off making it very blue with clear ice. Some areas it looked like we were walking on water.

Février 2015.
Sur le chemin de Jokulsarlon en Islande, nous sommes tombés sur ce glacier situé en dehors des sentiers battus.
Paysage à couper le souffle, ce lieu coupé de toute civilisation est d'un calme plat où seul les clics de nos appareils photos retentissaient.
Svínafellsjökull glacier - Iceland - DaneWithADrone
An amazing glacier in the southern Iceland. I was permitted by the national park to fly and film the glacier but only after 6pm, which was fine as not a lot of people was present. Also the light was good as the golden hour was about to begin. The glacier is located close to the Skaftafell Camp site, where I spent the night. Great facilities.

Svínafellsjökull - Glacier from Game of Thrones, Iceland
Svínafellsjökull was the main location for scenes north of the wall in seasons two and three in Game of Thrones, where Jon Snow (Kit Harington) met Ygritte (Rose Leslie). The lowest part of the glacier also represents the surface of a frozen planet in Interstellar.
It is an outlet glacier from Öræfajökull, a 2,110 m tall glacial volcano and the highest peak of Iceland. This is Iceland's largest volcano and commonly perceived as the most dangerous, its 1362 eruption laying waste to the lush farming district surrounding it for a generation and spreading ash as far as Western Europe.
The volcano has since lain dormant apart from a lesser eruption in 1728 when three people died in the ensuing floods. They lived in the farm of Svínafell, under the mountain of the same name on the left of Svínafellsjökull. This farm was also the home of Flosi á Svínafelli - the antagonist of Njál's Saga, the most revered of the Viking Sagas - the chieftain, haunted by foreboding dreams, who burned the eponymous Njáll and his sons.
Since 2017, Öræfajökull has shown increased earthquake activity in the form of small tremors ranging from a depth of 1.5–10 km beneath the summit crater. As the massive glacier is perched on top of this queen of Icelandic volcanoes, any eruption would cause massive tephra and ash fall, as well as floods, driving mammoth icebergs out of the steep outlet glaciers towards the surrounding plains.
The glacier is melting at an increasing rate, creating the small but expanding lagoon. The decreasing mass of the glacier relieves pressure on the magma chamber below, making volcanic eruptions ever more likely.

Glacier Svinafellsjokull can be reached by car or go for a light and pleasant walk among the lupine field stretching purple ribbon. The path starts just behind the hotel Skaftafell Oraerfi.
Svinafellsjokull glacier is very cracked due to the ubiquitous greenhouse effect, at the same time hides many caves. For lovers of climbing an ideal place to explore.
Here Christopger Nolan's with a camera crew filmed a scene for the film Interstellar as a planet potentially habitable. At this point the scene was shot also for the second season of Game of Thrones - recounting the fate of John Snow'a behind the wall.
Many tourists are attracted by the opportunity to see first of all the three languages of the ice in the immediate vicinity. The most popular - Skaftafellsjokull can reach the trail starting right at Skaftefell Visitors Center. The road is well prepared, but it ends with a few dozen meters in front of the glacier, near the lake, which every year due to the retreat of the glacier grows.
