Perched on a cliff edge, marvel at cascading waterfalls and soaring seagulls.
A relaxing mountain experience in Iceland, filmed from a still, meditative vantage point, running 2 min in immersive VR180.
Iceland is home to Gullfoss and Skogafoss. Every experience here is filmed on location in resolutions up to 16K.

What to expect
The camera stays in one place for the full 2 min, so nothing pans or lurches and you set the pace by turning your head. If fast motion in a headset does not agree with you, this is one of the gentler ways in.
It is filmed in stereoscopic VR180, which means depth is real: near things sit close, far things stay far, and the mountain reads at proper scale instead of flattening onto a screen. Look up, look to the edges of the frame, and take your time. There is nothing to steer and nothing to learn.
We tag this one relaxing, and it sits in Iceland alongside the rest of what we have filmed there. It is included with a subscription.
Mulagljufur Canyon in VR180
Múlagljúfur, which nearly everyone types as Mulagljufur, cuts into the hills of south east Iceland between Skaftafell and the glacier lagoon at Jokulsarlon. It stays quiet for a simple reason: the turn off the Ring Road is an unmarked gravel track, and the canyon only opens up after a walk uphill. What waits at the top is a gorge lined in thick moss with waterfalls dropping in from the side valleys, the tallest of them Hangandifoss, and a view back down the valley toward Fjallsarlon and the ice of Oraefajokull.
We filmed it as a still scene from the cliff edge, a little over two minutes with the camera fixed, so nothing pans or lurches and you choose where to look. We tag it Relaxing. Birds work the updraughts in front of the walls, which is the only thing in the frame that moves quickly.
A canyon is the hardest subject for a flat photograph, because the one measurement that matters is the one a screen throws away. In stereoscopic VR180 the near rim sits close to you, the far wall stays across the gap, and the waterfall reads at the distance it actually falls, so the scale of the cut stops folding onto a single plane.
