Rauðaskál, also known as the Apple Crater, is a colorful crater near the Hekla Volcano in Iceland. The hike to the crater is relatively short if you know where to park. I attached a screenshot of which route you need to take but basically you need to follow google maps to Raudaskal Crater and until it says you are there (it will take you to the lower parking lot), then you need to follow the screenshot directions to get to the top parking.
