Vidgelmir Cave
Vidgelmir Cave is Iceland's largest cave and one of the worlds largest and is one of the Most Beautiful Caves in Iceland. This cave, located in the west of Iceland, is home to amazing ice formations, stalagmites, and stalactites. In the 1990s, Viking relics and jewelry were unearthed inside the cave. Since then, the cave has been meticulously conserved, and it is now only accessible with the assistance of a guide.
Stairwells and illumination have made it easier to navigate areas of the cave. The lighting was meticulously created to complement the myriad natural colors that adorn the cave walls. After passing through the cave's narrow entrance tunnel, you'll see the towering ceilings are surprisingly expansive. If you are afraid of heights, this is a preferable cave to visit.
The cave features two openings, which were formed when the lava tube's roof collapsed. The cave is large in some areas but narrows in others, with a rocky floor that can be difficult to navigate without a guide. The freshly installed boardwalk makes viewing the cave much easier. The cave features stunning ice formations and amazing lava stalactites and stalagmites deep within it. The Cave is a family-run business headquartered on the historic farm of Fljótstunga in Western Iceland.
