The view from the Snæfellsglacier is very beautiful, it is impossible to describe in words.

Snæefellsjökull is an old coneformed vulcano and is said to be one of the most beautiful mountains on the island. On top, there is a giant crater full of clear ice. The highest peaks are the western and the middle peak, 1442 and 1446 metres over sea. There is a northern peak as well, 1390 metres high and covered in snow and ice during summer aswell.
