Hvannadalshnúkur
'Hvannadalshnúkur' or 'Hvannadalshnjúkur' () is a
peak in the north-western rim of the
Öræfajökull volcano in
Iceland and the highest point of the island. An official measurement completed in August
2005 established its height as 2,109.6 m (previously set as 2,119 m).
The peak is part of the
Skaftafell National Park. The route to the top is a popular climb though numerous and frequently hidden
crevasses call for experienced mountain guides.
