Overview

厂苍忙蹿别濒濒蝉箩枚办耻濒濒 National Park encompasses much of the western tip of Sn忙fellsnes Peninsula and wraps around the rugged slopes of the glacier 厂苍忙蹿别濒濒蝉箩枚办耻濒濒 (pronounced sneye-fells-yo-kutl), the icy fist at the end of the long Sn忙fellsnes arm. Around its flanks lie lava tubes, protected lava fields, which are home to native Icelandic fauna, and prime hiking and coastal bird- and whale-watching spots.
