The otherworldly landscape of Landmannalaugar in the highlands of Iceland is best viewed from the summit of Bláhnjúkur.

The northward view form the summit of the 940m peak of Bláhnjúkur provides a concise image of the different landscapes of Landmannalaugar. From the snow-striated lava fields and multi-coloured mountains to the West across to the sandy mountains rising up on either side of valleys scribbled in by young rivers in the East, there is a lot to take in. In between these starkly different alien scenes lies the Landmannalaugar base camp surrounded by a small patch of greenery around its geothermal springs. Further on in the distance lies Frostastaðavatn lake getting a smattering of rain.
