Is this the place Jules Verne was thinking of in “Journey to the Center of the Earth” ?

EXCERPTS
“Thrihnukagigur volcano is dormant – it last erupted over 4,000 years ago. There are no indications of it erupting again in the near future. The volcano’s name, mostly unpronounceable for anyone other than locals, would be directly translated as ‘Three Peaks Crater’. The name comes from Árni B. Stefánsson, who was the first to explore the vault and who has pleaded the case for making it accessible for years.
“The beauty of the crater mostly consists in the various colourations found inside it and its enormous – and to some extent intimidating – size. To put it in context, the ground space is equivalent to almost three full-sized basketball courts planted next to each other and the height is such that it would easily fit full sized Statue of Liberty into the chamber. So make no mistake – it’s huge!” . . . Go to web page
NOTE: Booking have now stopped for 2013. We will start booking in January for 2014. The tour in to Thrihnukagigur Volcano is operatad by 3H Travel, a licenced tour operator in Iceland.

Journey into a volcano in Iceland
Published on Jul 11, 2013
In June 2013 I went to Iceland and took a trip inside a volcano! Its the only place on earth you can do this and they started with excursions in 2012. So when I went down I joined the group of only 2400 people in the world that have been inside an volcano. To put that in perspective, As of January 3, 2013, only 530 people are known to have gone into space according to the FAI guideline. And that’s Awesome!

Scientists search for the explosive source of a disaster that wiped out almost a third of Londoners in 1258.
When archaeologists discovered thousands of medieval skeletons in a mass burial pit in east London in the 1990s, they assumed they were 14th-century victims of the Black Death or the Great Famine of 1315-17. Now they have been astonished by a more explosive explanation – a cataclysmic volcano that had erupted a century earlier, thousands of miles away in the tropics, and wrought havoc on medieval Britons.
Scientific evidence – including radiocarbon dating of the bones and geological data from across the globe – shows for the first time that mass fatalities in the 13th century were caused by one of the largest volcanic eruptions of the past 10,000 years.. . . Read Complete Report

Meet the experts who monitor the behaviour of the Yellowstone supervolcano. They face the awesome responsibility of predicting when the next super-eruption might next take place — and advising on what will happen when it does.
For those looking for “the way in” this might be a possible avenue. . . . EDITOR

They are ferocious when on the attack and unpredictable in nature – but absolutely stunning when viewed from the inside.
For these are the spectacular images taken by photographer Lurie Belegurschi, who descended into the heart of Thrihnukagigur volcano, near Reykjavik in Iceland, to show the extraordinary beauty of the magma chambers buried deep within the dormant volcano.
Perhaps the explorer felt secure as he descended to 120 metres – the equivalent of three Statues of Liberty piled one on top of the other – because it has been 4,000 years since the volcano last erupted.
But as he descended in a basket attached to a crane, the old mantra must have run through his head: It’s not a question of if, it’s when. . . . Read Complete Report + photos and videos
