Iceland XLVIII – Documenting Pétursborg in the deadly lava field – Summer │ Part 144

* * Don’t think about going alone into this lava desert, it’s suicidal * * * WARNING - The last person who got lost in the field was found after 30 years - so please think about it before you try it. It is safer to walk Skógfellaveg and along the Huldugjá cliffs. The way is longer but much safer. That's the way I chose when I went back home – You see it in the video Pétursborg stands on the edge of Huldugjá. The sheepfold is an old sheep fort from Tumakoti in Vogum, named after Pétri Andréssyni (1839 – 1904) a farmer there, who is said to have built the sheepfold single-handedly. It is oval in shape and the east wall is mostly collapsed. The length of the sheepfold is 6-7 m, width 4-5 m, wall thickness about 50 cm, height 180 cm and the door faces southeast. At Pétursborg to the north and east, there are two old houses and the third is quite new. From Pétursborg there is a beautiful view over the heath to Hrafnagjá, Snorrastaðatjarnir and Háabjalla. The area was formed in a similar way to Þingvellir, a fault where the center descends on a fault line and slides around approx. 2 cm per year on average. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - *** TIMEFRAME *** 00:00 Walking across the deadly lava field 02:08 The destination 02:42 Pétursborg 08:24 Starting the journey back home 08:52 Old Army Bunker 11:21 Skógfellavegur trail 14:01 Stairs over the fence to Skógfellavegur trail where you should start - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 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.
