Take off-road 923, park on Klaustursel farm, cross the footbridge and walk for 5 km. Don't go to Grund farm on the west rim because there's no way to climb down from there.

The hike to the small glacier lake in the middle of the large lava field is an absolute highlight. The water has a very special color. A circular route (path) leads once around this great place in the mountains.
