Iceland Postcard — Landmannalaugar

About this postcard

Landmannalaugar sits in the Fjallabak Nature Reserve in the southern highlands of Iceland. The extraordinary colours of the mountains here are caused by rhyolite — volcanic rock cooled slowly enough to develop mineral compounds that produce reds, oranges, yellows, and greens across the hillsides. The effect from the air is almost hallucinatory.

The area is accessible only by four-wheel drive in summer and is entirely cut off in winter. It's the starting point for the famous Laugavegur hiking trail, a four-day walk through some of the most remote and dramatic landscape in Europe.

Every Postcard.is design is a real image from Iceland — a place whose landscapes range from glaciers and waterfalls to volcanic deserts and midnight-sun coastlines. We print each card on quality postcard stock, add your personal message, and post it directly from Iceland with a genuine Icelandic stamp and postmark.
