Continue to the Geysir geothermal area, famous for its hot springs and the active Strokkur geyser, which erupts every few minutes. Witness Strokkur erupting, sending boiling water up to 30 meters into the air.
Next, visit the iconic Gullfoss waterfall, where the Hvítá river plunges dramatically into a deep canyon. Walk along the viewing paths to experience different perspectives of the waterfall.
Your next stop is the Kerid Crater, a striking volcanic crater lake with vividly colored slopes and a serene lake at the bottom. Walk along the crater’s rim for panoramic views of the surrounding area.
Descend to the bottom of the crater for a closer look at the unique colors and rock formations. Learn about the volcanic history of this remarkable site.
