Here are additional top activities in Iceland to inspire your adventure:
Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights)
At the pinnacle of many travel bucket lists, witnessing the Aurora Borealis is an awe-inspiring experience. For optimal viewing, head to Thingvellir, a national park rich in both scenic beauty and historic significance. Check the weather for dark, clear skies to increase your chances of seeing this natural wonder, while also delving into the park's fascinating cultural history.
Holuhraun
Explore the captivating Holuhraun lava field, a relatively new geological marvel in Iceland's Highlands. Accessible by a robust 4WD vehicle, it showcases the dramatic landscapes of Iceland's most recent volcanic activity (2014-2015). With vivid colors and steaming sands, this site promises not only spectacular views but also a unique adventure. Remember to stick to marked paths and use gloves when handling lava rocks.
Reynisfjara Beach
Reynisfjara Beach offers an extraordinary spectacle with its distinctive black sands and striking basalt columns. Formed as lava meets water, this volcanic shoreline is a must-see. While exploring, marvel at Gardar, a basalt cliff resembling a heavenly staircase, formed through columnar jointing. This natural pyramid is considered Iceland's most remarkable basalt formation, epitomizing the country's striking geological wonders.
Party in Reykjavik
For those seeking vibrant nightlife, Reykjavik delivers the best party scene in Iceland. This charming town features an array of lively bars and restaurants, each boasting amazing music without the nuisance of cover charges. Experience Reykjavik’s dynamic atmosphere, where every night out is as memorable as the scenery that surrounds you.
Seljavallalaug
Immerse yourself in the serene waters of Seljavallalaug, one of Iceland’s oldest natural pools. Though the water temperature is mild due to a mix with colder streams, the experience is timeless, providing a peaceful retreat amidst Iceland’s stunning landscapes.
