When describing Icelandic landscape, I often highlight it's rugged and divine natural beauty, abundant mountains, lava fields, stunning fjords and glaciers, and dramatic coastlines. In other words, plenty of amazing and other-worldly natural scenery. There are so many beautiful destinations you will find, so even I try to list up some of those below, it will not fully represent what I can recommend.
As the most sparsely populated country in Europe with only close to 400.000 inhabitants, then you can find numerous locations and places where you can experience a perfect solitude in Iceland. You can go hiking for hours without meeting one person. To take another example, then it is good to compere one the state of Kentucky which is about the size of Iceland but only 7% of its population.
Iceland is a great place to observe the beautiful Northern Lights in winter time. They usually starts in middle of September
In some parts of Iceland, the landscape feels almost unreal. Many visitors say it’s like joining a NASA mission to another planet. You may even have to remind yourself that this is Earth and not some distant world.. In other locations you will experience other-worldly moments when witnessing awesome landscape and the beauty of the various scenery.
It’s no wonder film producers choose Iceland for some of the world’s biggest movies. Iconic films such as James Bond: A View to a Kill, Interstellar, Prometheus, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Batman Begins, and Eurovision were all filmed here. The famous TV series Game of Thrones also used Iceland’s landscapes to bring its epic scenes to life.
