Langisjór
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Langisjór is a lake in the Highlands of Iceland. It is around 20km in length and up to 2km wide, with a total surface area of about 26 km2 and a depth of 75m at its deepest point.
The lake is situated rather far from civilisation at the south-western border of Vatnajökull at an altitude of 670m above sea level. On the other hand, the environment is extremely beautiful (see photos). Environmental campaigners have expressed concern at government plans to site an industrial dam on the lake.
