At night, try to find a spot where the sky is clear, if you’re lucky you might spot the northern lights! Drive through the Mýrdalssandur black sand plains where all travellers crossing for the first time were supposed to pile stones up to make a cairn, which would bring them good fortune on the journey. You will see the ancient Eldhraun Lava and pass a lovely little village, Kirkjubæjarklaustur. In Skaftafell you can walk up to Svartifoss waterfall and drive up to Svínafellsjökull glacier.
