South Iceland & Northern Lights: 4-Day Volcano, Glacier & Waterfall Escape
Reykjadalur Geothermal Valley
Scenic hike to a steaming valley with a naturally warm river perfect for open-air bathing.
Reykjadalur, the “Steam Valley,” is a geothermal canyon where hot springs and fumaroles dot the hillsides and a warm river invites bathers. A moderate hike leads through mossy slopes and steaming vents to natural pools where hot and cold water mix to create comfortable bathing temperatures.
