There are 269 different glaciers in Iceland - covering over a tenth of the island's surface!❄️ | Guide to Iceland

5.9K views · 808 reactions | Glaciers in Iceland cover around 11% of the country’s surface. What's unique about glaciers is their ability to move. They crawl forwards due to sheer mass - like very slow rivers. Although glaciers are persistent, they slowly deform as they flow, creating crevasses, cracks, and sometimes beautiful glacier ice caves! ❄ | Guide to Iceland | Facebook

Apart from visiting an actual glacier when you're in Iceland, we highly recommend the glacier exhibit at Perlan Museum 🤩 The interactive exhibit gives you a brilliant insight into how glaciers shape the beautiful natural surroundings of Iceland 🏔️🧊 | Guide to Iceland
