Explore the magnificent lava tunnel Raufarhólshellir, one of the longest and best-known lava tubes in Iceland. I visited it last summer with my 8y old granddaughter and we had a blast. 4min drive. 4km. www.thelavatunnel.is
This is amazing place and you basically walk under the lava tunnel and it’s very beautiful.
A journey into Raufarhólshellir (The Lava Tunnel) is a unique experience and a great opportunity to witness the inner workings of a volcanic eruption as one walks in the path of lava that flowed during the Leitahraun eruption, which occurred east of the Bláfjöll mountains about 5200 years ago.
