Dramatic Drone Circle Over Grindavik - Lava & Snow Contrast @JustIcelandic

Uploaded March 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 days ago

This was shot just a few days ago and although this isn't my favourite kind of filming light it turned out to work for me this time due to the black lava. And i dont think it's smoke or steam coming up from MT. Þorbjörn, likely just a cloud on the move since i know i will be getting that question. The smoke from the lava was however way more then usual.

Dramatic Drone Circle Over Grindavik - Lava & Snow Contrast

$Road 551 In Iceland And The Cool Ice Road On The Glacier Langjökull Road 551 is very special because its mainly used to access the famous man made ice caves so it extends from the edge of the retreating glacier from June until September when it starts to snow again. Its fairly easy to get to the base-camp but the glacier it self is only usable for well equipped cars. We didnt go all the way to the ice cave because the trail became hard to spot and the glacier is very fractured this time of year so we didnt want to risk drifting from the safe trail that was still open when we were there in late August 2025. Check my links below for some of the tourist options around here.

$The Thermal Drone Got It Right - Warm Fracture from a Magma Intrusion It was literally the icing on the cake for me to look at the video from the traditional camera that confirmed hot air from the fracture without any doubt. We see this all the times by hot springs and i should have noticed this earlier but I was just so focused on the thermal images that gave me a hard time when the non working spot thermometer made it impossible to get an accurate reading from my last tour. This finding is as such not important as for the big picture on the peninsula, its more of a technincal statement about how useful IR drone thermal cameras can be, so when we got this statement about magma at 1.5km depth recently, i knew it was the perfect test.
