The contrast between a relatively small modern ice cap and the much larger underlying volcanic structure makes Tindfjallajökull geologically distinctive. The area is remote mountain terrain rather than an easy roadside glacier stop, and travel requires conditions appropriate to highland and glacial environments.
Did You Know?
The underlying caldera is roughly 7–10 km across.
