Gerðuberg Cliffs, located on the Snӕfellsnes Peninsula in west Iceland, are a row of super cool hexagonal basalt columns that look like they were carved by giants. These symmetrical rock formations, up to 14 meters tall, were created by lava flows cooling rapidly by the sea during an ancient eruption.
