Námaskarð
Námaskarð is a geothermal area on the mountain Námafjall, in north Iceland. Connected to the Krafla volcano system, Námaskarð is home to many hot-springs and fumaroles. Námaskarð is notable due to its barrenness with no vegetation grows on its slopes. This is due to the heat beneath the earth, the acidity in the soil, and poisonous fumes being expelled. The vivid colors that streak through the earth are dyed by the elements brought up with the steam.
