Thingvellir National Park
Thingvellir National Park is the National shire of all Icelanders. It lies within the belt of volcanic activity and fissures which pass across Iceland, a part of the mid-Atlantic ridge, the junction of the American and Eurasian tectonic plates. It is a nice feeling to stand with your right foot in Europe and the left one in America.
Geysir & Haukadalur Geothermal Area
Geysir – the biggest geysers of Haukadalur Geothermal Area are Strokkur and Geysir itself, which gives the others their name. This geothermal area, spreading over a surface of 3 km, is filled with so-called boiling mud pits that, when active, expulse hot water high into the air, followed by a steady puff of evaporating steam, only to repeat this occurrence every couple of minutes. Strokkur erupts every 5 to 10 minutes, throwing a column of water into the air to a height of 20 to 30 meters.
Gullfoss – The Golden Waterfall
Gullfoss is one of Iceland’s most popular and venerated natural landscapes. The waterfall ever so the impressive influential flow rate is given by the glacier river – Hvítá rich in Salmon River, flowing for 40 kilometers from Langjökull glacier in the highlands of Iceland before disappearing deep within the waterfalls canyon 32-meter drop.
