Skaftafell
Southeast Iceland's Raefi area hosts Skaftafell, a protected area. It was previously a sizable farm before being designated a national park. The bigger Vatnajökull National Park had once been known as Skaftafell National Park before it was combined with other surrounding areas.
Jokulsarlon
A sizable glacial lake named Jökulsárlón is then found in Iceland's Vatnajökull National Park's southern region.
It is a lake that formed when the Breiamerkurjökull glacier began to regress from the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. It is located at the head of the glacier. Since then, the lake has expanded at varied rates as a result of the glaciers melting. As glacial retreat expanded its limits, it was claimed to be the deepest lake in Iceland in 2009, with a depth of over 284 m. It now occupies an area of roughly 18 km2 and is about 8 km from the edge of the ocean.
