Welcome to Eldhraun, a truly otherworldly landscape that feels like stepping onto another planet. This vast lava field, born from a historic eruption, is now blanketed in a thick, fragile layer of green moss, creating a surreal, rolling terrain. You can easily pull over from the Ring Road to witness this spectacle. There are designated parking areas and short, marked paths that lead you right into the heart of this quiet, beautiful wilderness for an unforgettable view.
Just be sure to stay on the paths, as the moss has taken centuries to grow and is incredibly delicate. This moss is protected.
