Iceland LIV - The Other World – Reykjanes Hidden Gems │ Part 150

* * * Hidden Gems at Reykjanes Peninsula GeoPark in Iceland * * The Reykjanes peninsula is found in southwest Iceland. The peninsula juts out into the Atlantic Ocean, making it the most southwesterly part of the country and it’s a geological wonder On the Reykjanes peninsula, the junction between the Eurasian and North-American tectonic plates of the earth's crust is more noticeable and comprehensible than anywhere else. The Fagradalsfjall volcano started erupting on March 19 2021 and with six months of activity, created a small volcanic shield covering an area of 5 km2. The beautiful crater and lava formations are one of Iceland's hottest destinations and are easily accessible if weather and conditions are favorable on the mountain. Then there was an eruption at almost the same location in August 2022, and again in July 2023, both of which lasted for a much shorter period, or around three weeks. Since October 2023 there has been increased seismic activity in the Reykjanes area, which might indicate an upcoming volcanic eruption. The name, Reykjanes, translates to "smoking point,” reykja 'smoking', and nes 'point'. It is named this due to the continuing volcanic activity of the Reykjanes volcanic belt. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - *** TIMEFRAME *** 00:00 Hidden GEMS at Reykjanes Peninsula GeoPark - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - if you are a fellow video creator, let me support you too. – Please watch the video in 2K because the compression is so high in HD that it degrades the image quality - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thank you for watching.
