Lóndrangar (Iceland) - a photo on Flickriver

            The Lóndrangar are a pair of rock pinnacles in Iceland. They are volcanic plugs of basalt, that have been hewn out from softer surrounding rock by erosion. At 75 and 61 m tall, they are a singular sight.

History has it that the taller of the cliffs was ascended in 1735, while the smaller one was not climbed until 1938.

The Lóndrangar are remnants from a bigger crater which has mostly eroded away. It is reckoned that the rock in the slopes of nearby Svalþúfa is an isolated part of the original rim around the crater itself, with the rest eroded away by the sea. There are many bird nests in the steep slopes of the twin towers.
