Vatnajökull National Park, Iceland
冰岛瓦特纳冰川国家公园
Five years ago Iceland embarked on a major conservation effort, uniting two of its existing national parks to create the largest national park in Western Europe. Spanning nearly 8,500 square miles (that’s just short of 13% of the country), Vatnajökull is also appropriately home to the largest glacier in the world outside the Arctics – the massive Vatnajökull glacier which measures over 3,000ft thick in some areas.
五年前，冰岛开始着手于自然保护区的维护，将冰岛两大自然保护去合并打造成了西欧最大的自然公园。跨越近8500平方英里(只比整个国家的横跨面积少13%）瓦特纳冰川国家公园最厚的冰川超过了3000英尺的厚度。
This park is characterised by the constant battle between fire and ice. Snowy white glaciers are contrasted by black volcanic beaches and piping hot streams erupt through frozen banks of ice to ensure a very dynamic and ever-changing landscape.
瓦特纳冰川国家公园的最大特点是火与冰之间的不断斗争。白色的冰川与黑色的火山形成鲜明对比，火山的热蒸汽使冰川不断融化，形成不断变化的自然景观，这也让整个冰川公园显得充满活力。
