Our journey incorporates the hiking path that skirts the lava fragments left by the 2021 Fagradalsfjall eruption. Depending on the trail’s conditions, the hike could last from 1.5 to 2 hours in each direction and total between 6 to 12 km. In contrast to the six-month eruption in Fagradalsfjall in 2021, this explosion subsided after a mere 2.5 weeks.
The eruption revolutionized the physical geography of the Meradalir valley. The towering surrounding hills not only ensure safety when visiting but also offer a superb view and a prime spot for a picnic.
