Dimmuborgir is an area of randomly strewn lava rocks and cliffs, surrounded by vegetation, such as low bushes and plants. Dimmuborgir is a place of surprises with its myriad forms and images, small caves and towering volcanic rock, pierced by natural apertures.
The most famous of these formations is “The Church”, aptly named, as this is a cave, open at both ends and with a dome-like ceiling.
It is not only in summer that Dimmuborgir exerts its charm; a winter visit is also an invigorating experience which must, of course, include popping in to see the Yuletide Lads (Santas) who have made it their home.
