I really thought I had more basalt pictures than this, but all the rest also involve waterfalls, and beaches, and mountains, and ... Basalt is everywhere in Iceland.

| The tops of basalt columns have been smoothed by glaciers and ocean waves at Kirkjugólf (literally "church floor") near Kirkjubæjarklaustur in south Iceland. |

| Just a little bit further east on the Ring Road is Dverghamrar, an outcrop of vertical basalt columns. |
 |
| On a short walk through the area, some of the columns have become detached and are leaning. |
