Located in southern Iceland, this small valley contains breathtaking waterfalls and volcanic formations.
This might be the most beautiful place on the planet. We half expected fairies and pixies to pop out of the nearby caves. Totally worth the drive off the road.

Loved Krysuvik Geothermal area! We stopped here while exploring Reykjanes Peninsula. Such a cool sight to visit! You can park and walk on the boardwalk through the geothermal fields. Walking through this geothermal area, with the boiling mud springs, and the banks around the hot springs so colorful! Lakes Kleifarvatn and Graenavatn are part of Krysuvik Geothermal Area and both work seeing. Especially Graenavatn with the beautiful green color! I definitely recommend a visit here. In fact, i wish we had skipped Krysuvik Cliffs and had more time at the geothermal area, to walk the longer trail where you can overlook this beautiful site.

Our first day in Iceland was not a full day. We landed around noon, ate lunch and then visited places around Reykjanes Peninsula. Gunnuhver Hot Springs was our second stop, following Bridge Between Continents. It was cool to see! There is a ramp from where you can view everything. Make sure you have a waterproof jacket and be prepared for the smell! I definitely recommend spending some time visiting Reykjanes Peninsula and the unusual sights. May not be as spectacular as the sights on the South, or photogenic, but they are unusual and worth seeing. In case you are interested, these are the sights we hit on our tour of the Reykjanes Peninsula: Bridge Between Continents, Gunnuhver Hot Springs, Reykjanes Lighthouse, Brimketill Lava Rock, Krísuvíkurberg, Krysuvik geothermal area (Seltún, Kleifarvatn and Grænavatn).

Reynisdrangar are basalt sea stacks situated under the mountain Reynisfjall near the village Vík , southern Iceland which is framed by a black sand beach. The black, eroded sea stacks are not only beautiful to see, but beautiful legends are associated with them. Maybe, if you look on them you recognize the two trolls. Such an amazing location, this is nature at it's best, amazing scenery. One of the most beautiful and magical places on Earth.

One of our favourite spots in the south, Kleifarvatn lake is incredibly beatiful. We prefer it in early spring, when there isn't any green around, while probably it's at its worst in winter.

The Bridge between continents is a small footbridge over a major fissure which provides clear evidence of the presence of a diverging plate margin. The bridge was built as a symbol for the connection between Eurasian and North America tectonic plates.
A really cool and interesting place to visit! It was a super wet and rainy day when we visited so we only turned up briefly, but it was very interesting.
