Eyjafjallajökull sits quietly above one of the most affected farms of the 2010 eruption. The entire area was covered with deep ash that took months to clear. The acid in the ash killed crops and continued to have an effect long after the few months of eruptions ceased.

This US Air Force C-117D (formerly designated as a Super DC-3 (R4D-8)) crash landed in 1973 after running out of fuel - all survived. Since then, it's remained on this remote black sand beach in Southern Iceland as a hidden attraction for those in the know. Update June 2016: the road is now closed to vehicles and the only access is with a 4km walk. It's also no longer 'hidden', with a large sign at the gate.
