Roughly seventeen years after Robert’s Rebellion overthrew “Mad” King Aerys Targaryen and Robert Baratheon became king of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros, Robert requested Ned Stark, his old friend and Warden of the North, to come to the capital of King’s Landing to become Hand of the King (chief adviser). Ned agreed, despite rumors of the return of the mythological White Walkers to the wild lands north of the Wall.

Looking for a Game of Thrones tour of Iceland, or want to create your own with a Game of Thrones locations in Iceland map? You’ve come to the right place!

Of all the places I’ve been that have featured in the series, Iceland might have to be my favourite. And I’ve been to a lot, by chance! There’s Dubrovnik in Croatia that featured as Kings Landing, Giants Causeway and Dark Hedges in Northern Ireland, the medieval city of Girona in Spain and the Moorish Alcazaba further south in Almería – but Iceland is a whole other world.

I think it’s because almost every corner you turn around, road you take, or stunning piece of scenery you come across in Iceland feels like it could have featured in Game of Thrones. Travelling around the country is amazing anyway (although it can also be a little difficult in winter!) but if you’re a Game of Thrones fan then you may want to know which particular beautiful parts of the country were used in the series.

I asked some other travel bloggers who have also travelled to Iceland to share their favourite Game of Thrones filming location so that you can tick them off your list as you drive around, or check out which ones you’ll see on an Iceland Game of Thrones tour.

There’s also a Game of Thrones Iceland map at the end of the post to help you out!

Dimmuborgir

By Jessica from Independent Travel Cats

Dimmuborgir, which roughly translates into English as “dark castles”, is a large area in Northern Iceland of lava fields that have a lot of unusual geological formations. Many of the dramatic rock pillars, crags, and collapsed lave tubes resemble castles, towers, and cathedrals.

Dimmuborgir is located near Lake Myvatn and is an easy place to visit by car or via a tour and you can access it just off the road. To really explore it though, you need to get out and explore on foot, and there are a number of walking and hiking paths (short and long) within this area. It is a popular tourist attraction and is free to visit, making it great for those traveling to Iceland on a budget!

The Game of Thrones connection is that Dimmuborgir was featured in episodes during Season 3 as it was where Mance Rayder set up his army camp. Many of the lava rock formations and arches are shown as part of the backdrop in these scenes.

The scenes were shot during winter so the area is covered in snow so if you want the full effect from the film, you might want to visit in the winter months. However, we’d recommend coming in summer for warmer weather and to better enjoy the area.

Grjótagjá

By Catherine D’Cruz from We Go With Kids

Grjótagjá is a small lava cave located in North Iceland near Lake Myvatn. We visited this filming location for an iconic (but not kid-friendly) scene with Jon Snow and Ygritte while exploring Lake Myvatn with our three kids in June 2017. Grjótagjá is often considered a hidden or secret thermal spring but was labeled on the map we received from the Tourist Information Center. There are two portals the small lava cave that each have a thermal spring filled with blue water, and one was commonly used for swimming. The cave is located on private property, but there was a nearby parking area and no charge to enter.

While all of the visitors were respectful during our visit, the caves were closed in July 2018 due to the inappropriate behavior of visitors who used the caves as bathrooms, washed shoes and dishes in the thermal springs and left trash. This sad closure is a reminder to be careful to leave no trace when visiting any landmark, especially a sight graciously opened to the public by private landowners.

Thingvellir National Park

By Laurence from Finding the Universe

Thingvellir, or Þingvellir, is a must-visit in Iceland, even if you’re not a Game of Thrones fan. Although fans will be rewarded with a wonderful location from the series as a bonus.

Thingvellir is a national park in Iceland, found on the famous Golden Circle driving route which takes in other highlights including Gulfoss waterfall and the Geysir geothermal park. It’s a UNESCO listed site and is important for cultural and geological reasons. From a cultural standpoint, Thingvellir was where the first Icelandic parliament meetings were held – from the 10th to 18th centuries!

From a geological point of view, the park straddles two major tectonic plates, North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, and you can actually see where these two plates are separating at various locations throughout the park. One of these, Almannagjá gorge near Öxaráfoss waterfall featured as the Gates of the Moon – the path to the Eyrie and appeared in Season 1 and Season 4 of the show.

Nearby, the famous scene where the Hound fights Brienne of Tarth can also be found. In addition, when Arya left Westeros for Braavos, she sailed from lake Þingvellirvatn, also found in the park.

Getting to Þingvellir is easy. You can do it as a day trip from Reykjavik, either self-guided or on a tour. It’s also included in many of Iceland’s tours, and every Golden Circle tour will include it. For tour ideas, take a look at our favourite guided group tours of Iceland.

Þórsmörk & Stakkholtsgjá

Þórsmörk is the landscape that Jon Snow and the Suicide Squad march across when they are going to try and catch a wight in Season 7. The near silent canyon of Stakkholtsgjá near Þórsmörk features as the place where a group of wights are ambushed.

Svínafellsjökull Glacier

By Inma from A World to Travel

This iconic glacier tongue, the largest ice cap in the European continent, was first seen in Game of Thrones Season 2 as Beyond the Wall’s snowy landscapes.

If you take the famous Ring Road for the ultimate Iceland road trip, you’ll come across Svinafells glacier (jökull means ice cap) as this huge ice tongue is seen from it. I was there at the beginning of June but it is possible to get there all year round. Just mind the weather beforehand, as you might know by now, it changes really fast in Iceland.
