Message from Dani Guindo

Berserkjahraun is a 4000-year-old lava field on the Snæfellsnes peninsula in Iceland. According to Icelandic Sagas, two berserkers from Sweden cleared a path through the lava field for a farmer, only to be betrayed and buried near the path. The lava field was formed by four scoria craters erupting around 4000 years ago, creating stunning landscapes and unique geological features. Visitors can explore this historic and geologically fascinating area while enjoying the natural beauty of Iceland's western region.
