About Highlands Of Iceland
The Highlands of Iceland are a sparsely inhabited plateau that covers most of the interior of Iceland. They are situated above 400–500 metres and are mostly an uninhabitable volcanic desert, because the water precipitating as rain or snow infiltrates so quickly into the ground that it is unavailable for plant growth.
