Helgafell is an inactive 227-metre-high volcanic cone located on  the island of Heimaey  in the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago in  Iceland.   The Stórhöfði peninsula immediately to the south of Helgafell in  what is now southern Heimaey formed about 6000 years ago, with  Helgafell forming from a secondary eruption a thousand years  later.  Immediately north of Helgafell is the active volcano Eldfell,   which last erupted January 23, 1973. Helgafell is a dormant cone  volcano, although it is considered likely that it will erupt again in  the future .
