The inside story

Skaftafell is a jewel in the crown of Vatnajökull National Park, located on the southern coast of Iceland. This natural paradise is home to some of the most spectacular landscapes in the country where glaciers meet verdant forests and waterfalls cascade down mountainsides – you’ll be mesmerised by these contrasting backdrops.

The park’s showstoppers include the immense Vatnajökull glacier and the Svartifoss waterfall, framed by dark basalt columns that give it the nickname ‘Black Falls’. It’s a mesmerising sight that has even inspired architectural designs in Iceland’s capital.

Skaftafell is also known for its rich flora and fauna, offering a stark contrast to its icy surroundings. Adventure lovers can enjoy hiking along one of the country’s most beloved trails that leads from Skaftafell up Kristinartindar Peaks too – or even try a glacier walk on the park’s glacial tongues.
