Icelandic Lakes and Ponds

This collection features six notable lakes and ponds within Iceland's Fjallabak Nature Reserve, primarily concentrated around the Landmannalaugar area. These highland water bodies include volcanic explosion craters like Ljótipollur, formed in 1477, and lakes bordered by expansive lava fields such as Frostastaðavatn. The region is a significant destination for angling, with several lakes serving as habitats for Arctic char and brown trout, while the surrounding rhyolite mountains and volcanic sands provide diverse terrain for hiking.
