Sólheimajökull is a prominent and easily accessible outlet glacier in southern Iceland, part of the larger Mýrdalsjökull ice cap. It's situated between the volcanoes Katla and Eyjafjallajökull. Known for its dramatic scenery, including icy crevasses and blue ice, it's a popular destination for glacier hikes and ice cave tours. 

The glacier is approximately 150 kilometers (93 miles) east of Reykjavik, Iceland's capital city, and about 30 kilometers (19 miles) west of the town of Vik, the southernmost town of the island of Iceland
