Eyjafjallajökull is one of the smaller glaciers of Iceland. It is situated to the north of Skógar and to the west of the bigger glacier Mýrdalsjökull. The ice cap of the glacier covers a volcano which has erupted rather frequently since the Ice Age. The volcano's disruptive 2010 eruption was the first since 1823.
