ブレイザゥルロヌのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

写真を邪魔されずに撮りたい場合は、ここに来るのがおすすめです。あまり混雑しておらず、魔法のようで、とても美しい場所です。

スカフタフェトル国立公園から東へ約25km、より有名な氷河湖ヨクルサルンに近いブレイズメルクルサンドゥルに位置し、ホルナフィヨルズルという自治体に属しています。 ブレイズルルン氷河湖は、ブレイズア川によって接続されています。湖の上には、標高が最も高いフワンナダルスフヌクルであるカラフルな山頂を持つ火山、オゥラエファイェキュトルがあります。しかし、フワンナダルスフヌクルは湖からは見えません。オゥラエファイェキュトルからは、その氷河舌であるファルスヨークトルが湖まで伸びており、氷河がそこに氷山を形成しています。ただし、ここの氷山はヨクルサルンよりも小さいです。(出典: Wikipedia)。

Diamond Beach: The best place in Iceland to get your feet wet.

A little further along the beach it gets much quieter, and then you don't have footprints everywhere in your photos.

The Jökulsarlon Glacier Lagoon was formed naturally from melted glacial waters and continues to expand as icebergs break off from the shrinking glacier. This ever-changing landscape is a striking visual reminder of global warming, as the glacier retreats noticeably year after year.

In the summer months, it's possible to visit the lagoon up close and even touch the ice: several companies offer amphibious boat or zodiac excursions that depart from the shore and sail among the icebergs, with prices around €100. The Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon, at the foot of Breiðamerkurjökull, is Iceland's most famous glacial lake and seems like a world unto itself. Ice blocks of all sizes and colors float within it, from pure white to intense blue or streaked with black volcanic ash. Access from the main road is direct and easy, even by bike, with several easy-to-reach stops. It's a good idea to bring warm clothing because the air descending from the glacier is icy, and take the time to watch the icebergs drift slowly toward the sea. Seals are often seen playing among the chunks of ice, making the scene even more magical. It's a place that never disappoints: changing every minute and always seeming freshly created.

In the shadow of Vatnajökull lies Breiðárlón, a glacial lagoon much less crowded than its famous neighbor Jökulsárlón. Here, icebergs float silently, reflecting blue and white hues that change with the light. It's a peaceful spot, free from crowds, ideal for experiencing the grandeur of ice and the calm of nature in its purest form.

Here, the Fjallsjökull glacier, part of the gigantic Vatnajökull (8,000 km²), melts into a lagoon filled with icebergs that resemble sculptures. Quieter than Jökulsárlón, it's perfect for a quick bike ride and to feel the power of the ice just a few meters away.
