About Skessujökull
Skessujökull er jökulfláki í Kerlingafjöllum. „Kerlingafjöll eru megineldstöð á gliðnunarbelti sem kennt er við Hofsjökul.“ Mikil eldvirkni var innan eldstöðvarinnar á jökul og hlýskeiðum síðustu Ísaldar. Þannig tróðust upp háreistir líparítgúlar sem sumir náðu upp úr ísbreiðunni og mynduðu stapa (1). Kerlingafjallasvæðið allt er mikilvægt útivistarsvæði (2).
