The 1 million year old Mountain, Lómagnúpur ,with lava fields .In the Coat of arms of Iceland there are four protectors of Iceland and one of them is a giant who lives in the cliffs by Lómagnúpur Mountain. He protects the south coast of Iceland from all evil that might come to land in the area.
Stories related to Lómagnúpur have been around for a long time. Lómagnúpur is part of the Núpstadir Farmlands which is on the list of protected national heritage sites in Iceland.
