Fjallabak 

Fjallabak 

When it rains, and it does so often in Fjallabak, the highlands of Rangárvallasýsla and Vestur-Skaftafellssýsla, Iceland is the most green. True Greenland. Up there on the highlands, the moss is somehow greener, and in such a beautiful contrast to the black sand and black lava. In the summer, there are two ways into the area, Fjallabaksleið south and north. Both roads, incredibly beautiful, have a lot of opportunities to go up to the mountains for a view of the area, or into the valleys to experience a hot spring, a stream or a pond, filled with birds. My favorite, in this area… hard to say… Langisjór, Laki, or Skaftá which flows between them.
