A successful land reclamation initiative is currently underway in the Rangárvellir region, encompassing approximately 1,500 hectares. The primary objective of this project, a collaborative effort between Landsvirkjun and Land and Forest Iceland, is to restore the vegetative cover, foster the growth of local flora, and facilitate the propagation of indigenous birch trees. This endeavor aims to rehabilitate eroded and sparsely vegetated terrain, contributing to climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration in the soil and vegetation. Additionally, designated trails have been established within the site, enabling future recreational and outdoor activities in the area.
