Fjaðrárgljúfur iceland ring road

Fjaðrárgljúfur, Iceland (August 2017)

There are many pretty canyons in the world, but when you see this one, and the word Fjaðrárgljúfur just flies out of your mouth, you reach a new level of consciousness.

One year ago this week…

Iceland has some other-worldly landscapes. This is a 7-photo photomerge so to get a sense of the scale, take note of the tiny human near the top of the photo, just right of center.

Fjaðrárgljúfur (Black Rock Canyon near Kirkjubæjarklaustur, Iceland)

On my first trip to Iceland I stayed in Reykjavik and only left the city for a brief puffin boat tour. On my second trip I rented a car and did the Golden Circle on my first day. The weather was fantastic.

However, on my second day the weather forecast was not good, and I was heading down the Ring Road to explore the southern coast. I was a bit bummed, thinking nothing would look very good in the rain. However, this canyon looked outstanding in the rain, maybe even better than on a sunny day.
