It goes without saying that there are endless photogenic spots in Iceland, but Eystrahorn is arguably one of the country's most enchanting places. Part of the Krossasnesfjall mountain range, this little-known but striking peak lies on the island's east coast and is enclosed by black sand and jagged lava rock.

Sadly for adventure lovers, the mountain's sides are too steep to climb, but you can still enjoy scenic drives and hikes through this wild and remarkable landscape.
