Part-III Flying over Waterfall Sk gafoss http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe6WoRJBKGQ J kuls rl n is the best known and the largest of a number of glacial lakes in Iceland. It is situated at the south end of the glacier Vatnaj kull between Skaftafell National Park and H fn. Appearing first only in 1934-1935, the lake grew from 7.9 km in 1975 to at least 18 km today because of heavy melting of the Icelandic glaciers. Approaching a depth of 200 m, J kuls rl n is now probably the second deepest lake in Iceland. J kuls rl n is separated from the sea by only a short distance, and the combined action of the glacier, the river that empties from the lake, and the ocean may eventually transform it into an inlet of the sea. There are plans to prevent this from happening, since the only road in the area passes over the narrow isthmus. It is not far from the Icelandic Ring Road, and buses travelling between H fn and Reykjav k usually stop there. The lake is filled with icebergs, which are calving off the Brei amerkurj kull glacier. At its shore, in the summertime, one has to watch out for the skuas, big seagulls which have their nests on the ground around the lake and which can occasionally become aggressive. Near J kuls rl n, there are two other glacial lakes, Fjalls rl n and Brei rl n.
