Iceland Walking along the east Jökulsárlón glacier

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
There is a walk along the east side of the glacier. You need to get a glacier guide to safely go onto the glacier.

Photography Tips

Telephoto such as 70-200 is the best way to isolate part of the glacier (rather a flat view otherwise).
Many timing could be good but sunrise and sunset (and the beginning of blue hour) are the best.
You may still be happy to have a long focal such as 300mm or more as you can encounter some reindeer on the way (see a photo of the spot taken with 300mm).
