After picking you up from your accommodation in approximately 35 min. drive, our very first stop will be Kleifarvatn, the largest lake on the peninsula. Its southern part is warm from hot springs running into the lake but is otherwise very cold. It's a perfect place for photographing because of its volcanic surroundings and bright blue water.

Krysuvik
After short 10 min drive our second stop will be the geothermal springs of Krýsuvík, located on the middle of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Dramatically coloured hills create a beautiful view over the volcanic vents and boiling hot springs.

Brimketill
Brimketill lava rock pool is next up after 15 min drive. A little pool right on the edge of land is supposedly occupied by a giantess named Oddný by folklore tales. The viewing platform above offers the possibility of getting soaked from the waves splashing against the rocks.
35 minutes
5
Gunnuhver Hot Springs
Very closed by is Gunnuhver hot spring where it will be our next stop. Its boiling water and mud pools were said in earlier times to get their energy from a ghost trapped underground by a priest.
20 minutes

Reykjanes Lighthouse
Our next stop after 30 min drive will be Reykjanes lighthouse, Iceland’s very first lighthouse, built in 1878 but destroyed by an earthquake eight years later and then rebuilt entirely in 1929.

Bridge Between Continents
Not very far away is our next stop, the world-famous bridge—the bridge between Europe and America. The earth’s tectonic plates, namely the European and the North American plates, meet there and form the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
