Hvannadalshnúkur or Hvannadalshnjúkur is a pyramidal peak on the northern western rim of the summit crater of the largest active volcano in the country, Öræfajökull in Iceland. At the highest peak in Iceland at 6,920 ft (2,110 metres). Geographically speaking, Öræfajökull is considered part of Vatnajökull, and the area covered by glacier is within the boundary of Vatnajökull National Park. Oræfajökull is located in the extreme south east of Iceland only a few kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean and can be views by pacers by on Route 1 and assess off this road at Svinafellsjokulsvegur.

Öræfajökull has erupted twice in it recorded history. In 1362, the volcano erupted explosively, with huge amounts of tephra being ejected. The district of Litla-Hérað was destroyed by floods and tephra fall. More than 40 years passed before people again settled the area, which became known as Öræfi. The name literally means 'an area without harbour', but it took on a meaning of 'wasteland' in Icelandic. An eruption in August 1727-28 was smaller, though floods are known to have caused three fatalities in his eruption.

For visitors wishing to stay by this volcano there is an adventure camp, Skaftafell, which is a part that houses camping families, hiking trails and other beautiful views and sights to behold.
