7Snaefellsnes Peninsula, Iceland

While Iceland’s Golden Circle and the Blue Lagoon are widely popular, the Snaefellsnes Peninsula remains underappreciated. This region is often referred to as “Iceland in miniature” due to its diverse landscapes—volcanic craters, lava fields, black sand beaches, waterfalls, and glaciers.

One of its main attractions is the Snæfellsjökull glacier, which is the centerpiece of a national park. Visitors can explore caves, hike along coastal cliffs, and take in the ethereal beauty of Iceland’s rugged terrain without the crowds.
