Kirkjufell is by now an iconic mountain in Iceland. "A mountain shaped like an arrowhead", was the description it was given in Game of Thrones, but long before it was included in this world-known TV series it had been luring photographers and nature enthusiasts to visit it. The mountain is not high, only 463 meters (1,519 feet) and although the hike up it takes about hours (one way) it is very demanding and has proved fatal for inexperienced hikers in the past.
