About Jökullón við Svínafellsjökul
Svínafellsjökull er skriðjökull sem gengur í suðaustur út út Vatnajökli við hlið Hoffellsjökuls. Hann er meðal þeirra jökla sem nyrstir skríða undan hákolli Breiðubungu. Áður var jökullinn hluti af Hoffellsjökli en eftir að hann klofnaði um Svínafellsfjall fékk vestari hlutinn nafnið Svínafellsjökull (1). Við þessa jökla er jökullón, en þau eru einstök náttúrufyrirbrigði á heimsvísu. Þó er erfið aðkoma að þessu lóni (2).
