"Great summit and easier than it looked from the road. Sign at the trailhead said it was the largest tephra crater in the world. Complete TR: https://TheMtsAreCalling.com/hverfjall/" — Christopher • Jun 20, 2021
"Tom and I saw this volcano out of the car window and decided it would be a fun climb to enjoy the sunset. We hiked to the summit of the volcano and around the edge of the summit cone. When we reached the summit I realized that I had lost one of my earrings that Tom had bought me for my birthday. We looked for it as we retraced our steps, but we never found it. When I took my sweater off back at the car the backing to the earring fell out, but no earring. That earring is somewhere on the summit of a volcano in Iceland forever. " — Kim-Stilson • Jul 11, 2018
"Decided to hike to the summit of this dormant volcano after seeing it out of the car window while driving. Ended up summiting around midnight when the sun is just hitting the horizon in Iceland at this time of the year. Beautiful views after a short hike to the summit of the volcano." — LGH-Tom • Jul 11, 2017
"Got the legs moving on Day 5 in Iceland. Incredible valley views. Decided to walk up the slope behind the hotel to a cairn and beyond. Some evidence of others on the same track." — alexjoseph • Oct 5, 2016
