Il programma nel dettaglio
You will depart from your pickup location on our minibus where we will make our way out of the city heading to the UNESCO heritage site Thingvellir National Park. A site of great historical, cultural and geological importance it is home to one of the world's first ever parliaments, founded in 930AD. The park sits between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates, this contributes to the stunning beauty of the surrounding area. Going deeper into the country we will make it to the geothermally active hot spring area of Haukadalur, where Strokkur, the still active geyser, sprouts steaming water every 10 minutes up to 30 metres in the air. One of the very few geysers that erupt frequently and reliably. To round of the trip we will stop by the magnificent Gullfoss Waterfall- translated to Golden falls. On sunny days the mist of the falls form rainbows that add to the splendor and provides it’s famous golden hue. Situated on the Hvítá river, the water drops in two stages of 11 and 21 metres into a 32 metre crevice. This is all fed by the Langjökull glacier, 2nd largest in Iceland.
