브레이다를론 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

방해받지 않고 사진을 몇 장 찍고 싶다면 이곳으로 오세요. 붐비지 않고 마법 같고 아주 아름다운 곳입니다.

이곳은 스카프타펠 국립공원에서 동쪽으로 약 25km 떨어진 호르나피외르두르(Hornafjörður) 지자체 내 브레이다머쿠르산두르(Breiðamerkursandur)에 있으며, 더 잘 알려진 요쿨살론(Jökulsárlón) 호수 근처에 있습니다. 브레이다아(Breiðá) 강을 통해 브레이다를론(Breiðárlón)과 연결되어 있습니다. 호수 위에는 욀라에파요쿨(Öræfajökull) 화산이 있으며, 가장 높은 봉우리인 흐반나달스흐누쿠르(Hvannadalshnúkur)는 호수에서는 보이지 않습니다. 욀라에파요쿨에서 흘러나오는 피얄스요쿨(Fjallsjökull) 빙하가 호수까지 내려오며, 이곳에서 빙하가 갈라져 나옵니다. 하지만 이곳의 빙산은 요쿨살론보다 크기가 작습니다.

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.
