Iceland

Iceland occupies a volcanic North Atlantic island on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, between Europe and North America. Glaciers, black-sand shores and active geothermal areas form a terrain in constant dialogue with the weather; Vatnajökull is Europe’s largest glacier by volume. The Golden Circle links Þingvellir National Park, the Geysir geothermal area and Gullfoss waterfall, while Reykjavík concentrates much of the country’s contemporary culture and design. At Þingvellir, the Alþingi first assembled in 930. Fishing, wool knitwear and geothermal energy remain central to Icelandic life.
