About Kaldalón
„Kaldalón er einn sérkennilegasti fjörðurinn við Ísafjarðardjúp. Þar er landslag fjölbreytt og mikilfenglegt. Fyrir sjónir ber ýmsar berggerðir, jökulgarða, óshólma, leirur og surtarbrand. Í botni fjarðarins tekur við dalur upp að Drangajökli. Það er hið eiginlega Kaldalón sem samanstendur af vöðlum og leirum ásamt jökulánni Mórillu sem liðast um lónið í fjölmörgum farvegum. Þegar gengið er inn dalinn taka við flatir grasbalar og loks þverhníptir hamraveggir, rætur Hrafnsfjarðareldstöðvar sem kennd er við Hrafnsfjörð í Jökulfjörðum“ (1). Úr Kaldalóni er aðeins um 1 - 1,5 klst gangur að jökulrönd Drangajökuls en sú gönguleið virðist hafa notið vaxandi vinsælda undanfarin ár (2).
