Take a detour onto a winding gravel road and immerse yourself in the otherworldly landscape of Berserkjahraun, a 4,000-year-old lava field. You'll drive right through a sea of moss-covered, jagged black lava rocks, a place steeped in the drama of Icelandic sagas. There are plenty of spots to pull over, step out, and walk on ancient paths, but be sure to tread carefully on the uneven ground. It’s a short but memorable drive that feels like a true Icelandic adventure, away from the main tourist trail.
