Below you have a live view of Hekla volcano. Hekla is 1.491 meter high volcano, located in the highlands of Iceland. Hekla is the most active volcano in Iceland and often referred to as the Queen of Iceland´s volcanoes.

Hekla last erupted in February of 2000. Scientists believe that Hekla is likely to erupt soon and if that happens – you will be able to watch it happen live – right here!

In ancient times Hekla was thought to be the entrance to hell or even hell it self. It´s was in 1750 that the first people hiked to the top of Hekla.

The webcam was installed in partnership between Iceland´s National Radio, Iceland´s Civil Protection Department and Siminn telephone.

Please note that daylight is limited in Iceland during winter. The picture will be best from 11am until 3pm GMT.
