Hoffellsjökull

Hoffellsjökull is an outlet glacier which flows from the ice cap of Vatnajökull. It is located in the municipality of Hornafjörður, southeast Iceland. Hoffellsjökull takes its name from Hoffell; a mountainous area and a farmland. Hoffellsjökull and the Hoffell area are a part of Vatnajökull National Park.
== Geomorphology ==

A cold period, often named the Little Ice Age, begun around 1450. The outlet glacier Hoffellsjökull began to advance from the Vatnajökull ice cap, over level and vegetated land.

When the Hoffellsjökull glacier tongue advanced, it blocked the lower openings of gorges in the mountains around Hoffellsfjöll and Núpar. Glacial lakes formed at Efstafellsvatn, Gjávatn and Múlavatn, and annual ''jökulhlaups'' (glacial outburst floods) occurred. When the glacier retreated the dams were removed and the lakes had disappeared by 1985. The old water levels can still be clearly seen, for example at the site of Gjávatn where the water was up to 60 m deep.
