Dormant Thrihnukagigur is one of the few places in the world where you can enter a volcano’s magma chamber, hiking up to its top crater before taking a cable lift 120 metres into its giant central cavity. Here, over 4,000 years ago, a space the size of the Statue of Liberty was filled with molten lava. Walking right among it all, it’s a truly privileged experience.
