Hljóðaklettar

North Iceland 
''The Echo Rocks''
Are in N-Iceland just south of Ásbyrgi in the Jökulsárgljúfur National Park.
When coming down the road leading to Hljóðaklettar a whole walley of extraordinary rock formation opens up.



These extraordinary rock formations, many of them standing in the middle of Jökulsá river (Jökulsá á Fjöllum) are the remains of volcanoes which have been eroded for centuries after centuries by the strong currents and floods of Jökulsá.


Jökulsá is the river coming from Dettifoss and Vatnajökull glacier, leaving only these extraordinary volcanic plugs behind.
