New Delhi: Iceland is one of the most active volcanic regions in the world.
Last year it made headlines with the launch of visits to the Thrihnukagigur volcano. Thrihnukagigur lies 13 miles south-east of the capital Reykjavik, in the protected enclave of Bláfjöll Country Park.
Thrihnukagigur volcano in Iceland is the only known exceptional volcano on earth which you can visit from inside.It is an attractive tourist destination for those who are crazy to explore the interior of a volcano.
Thrihnukagigur is the only place on the earth offering the kind of geological study that can't be carried out anywhere else.
Thrihnukagigur volcano is dormant – it last erupted over 4,000 years ago. There are no indications of it erupting again in the near future.
It was first discovered in 1974 and was fully explored and mapped out in 1991.
