alt=|thumb|Mælifell, Iceland Mælifell () is a volcano located in Southern Iceland.
Mælifell stands 200 meters above its surroundings and it is a composite cone volcano formed by volcanic eruptions underneath the Myrdalsjökull glacier. Mælifell has surfaced ca 10,000 years ago as glaciers receded after the last ice age.
