Iceland has famously been represented in filming locations in the iconic series, be they the very easily accessible Almannagjá canyon at Thingvellir National park where the artificial Oxarfoss waterfall flows, to the black sand beach at Reynisfjara, the iconic 'Arrowhead' mountain known as Kirkjufell and of course the glaciers and icecaps which have doubled for the lands beyond the wall.
During our recent sojourn on the island during late May, the scenery was primal and cinematic, and the week of persistently sunny weather belied the threat of oncoming winter! Winter was not coming and there was more than a scent of spring. The locals asked us to warn prospective visitors the 'it is not always like that!'
