Hiking
As promised, we will spend the bulk of this beautiful morning hiking through the colorful geothermal and geological wonders of the Hengill and Nesjavellir areas.







We will make a stop for a complimentary lunch at the ION Adventure Hotel Nesjavellir before we make a short 10-minute drive to our next destination.
#1 Hiking
We will take a moderate hike for the next 2.5 to 3 hours depending on your pace. We will see Nesjalaugar and Köldulaugar geothermal areas.
#2 Þingvallavatn
A short stop by the largest natural lake in Iceland, which we have seen on our hike. The lake sits in the rift valley between the North- American and Eurasian plates.
#3 Þingvellir
Now we will visit Þingvellir national park, which is full of geological and cultural history. Icelanders formed their first parliament here in the 10th century.
#4 Kjósaskarð
Here we will be standing at the bottom of the valley with mountains and rivers on both sides. Imagine when the bottom used to be the top!
