There was an active lava eruption just prior to our recent visit to Iceland. We were hoping to see the live lava flow on a hiking tour that we booked, but the lava had stopped about 6 days before our tour. You can still see the steam from the cooling lava in the distance. We were hoping to see something like what is shown in this video (from a safe distance) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myt-oAkf8pE
