If you want to see something really
wonderful, then the Elephant rock is ideal place for you. This rock is
truly one of the amazing natural sculptures on mother earth. The
Elephant Rock is a natural rock formation found on the island of Heimaey
(meaning Home Island) in Iceland's Vestmannaeyjar archipelago. Heimaey
is most inhabited island in Iceland with 4,500 residents in an area of
5.2 square miles. The beautiful Heimaey is actually a home to Eldfell
(Means “Mountain of Fire”). This 660 foot high volcano has spewed lava
on numerous occasions, leading many to believe it is the cause of the
Elephant Rock.
The Island having a
scenario such as this could have been the cause of the huge rock that
happened to be shaped just like an elephant. What a glorious mother
sculpture. I guess, you won’t believe this wonder of nature, but this is
real rock not Photoshop. Besides the amazing Elephant Rock, you might
see Keiko, the whale from the Free Willy films as this was where he was
actually set free, and also summer is when the island becomes populated
by millions and millions of adorable puffins! If you’re planning to
visit Icland, then Elephant Rock is a must place to see.
