Iceland
Majestic volcanoes, seething geysers, raging waterfalls, threatening fjords, mighty glaciers, endless lava fields – there is hardly another country in the world that offers as much impressive nature as Iceland, the remote island in the harsh North Sea. The nature in Iceland is immense! Here, the four elements of nature can be experienced as raw and as close-up as practically no other place on Earth. And nowhere on the northern hemisphere can the origin of life, can growth and decay be experienced as dramatically as here. Besides the impressive nature, we get to know the dramatic history of the Viking culture with its nature-influenced mythology and discuss the negative effects of excessive tourism.
