These are the Breathtaking Real-Life Locations of Game of Thrones

Fictional location: Beyond the Wall

In real-life: Hverfjall volcano in the Lake Myvatn region of Northern Iceland and Grjótagjá at Lake Mavatn.

The backdrops for Beyond the Wall scenes are so stunning that you would think they are computer-generated, but no. Hverfjall volcano in the Lake Myvatn region is actually a popular tourist destination especially during winter (duh!) and the unforgettable place where Jon Snow broke his vow of celibacy for Ygritte is actually the popular underground hot spring of Grjótagjá.
