The Center of the Earth: Snæfellsjökull Glacier, Arnarstapi

Only a two-hour drive from Reykjavik, the Snæfellsnes Peninsula is a world unto itself.

The entire peninsula was recently awarded the Green Globe 21 certification, which recognizes sterling environmental preservation efforts throughout the world. To date, only three other areas on the planet have been honored.

Spend a day exploring this unspoiled wonderland, where nature’s inventions are permitted to flourish without human interruption.

The landscape is a gallery of strange and beautiful lava formations, the skies are filled with birds, and the sea is alive with marine life.

Take a nature walk along the jagged cliffs of Arnarstapi, immerse yourself in the deliberate rhythm of small fishing villages, and stare up at the Snæfellsjökull glacier, where the protagonists in Jules Verne’s “Journey to the Center of the Earth” find a passage leading to the center of the earth.
