After being picked up from your accommodation, you will travel west to the historic area of Borgarfjörður, a region that can be regarded as the setting for most of the Icelandic sagas. First, visit the charming Glanni Waterfall and Deildartunguhver Geothermal Area. Afterward, you will see the great Hraunfossar, a series of waterfalls spread at a distance of around 900 meters. The waters flow out of the Hallmundarhraun, a lava field that was formed around 1,000 years ago during a massive eruption of a volcano lying under a Langjökull glacier. Rivulets streaming from the lava field create one of the most breath-taking views in Iceland, and just a few meters away, you will find another interesting waterfall.  The highlight of the tour is a visit to a colorful Vidgelmir lava cave. Just shy of 1,600 meters in length, the cave features amazing colors and lava formations that lurk in the depths of the earth. The area surrounding the entrance to the cave will allow you to realize just how powerful eruptions of volcanoes can be. Lastly, visit the Reykholt historic site where you can learn about the history of Iceland and see Snorralaug, small hot spring used by local people since the 12th century. This place was first mentioned in medieval writings OF Snorri Sturluson, the famous Icelandic poet, and politician who used to bathe there.

Hvammsvik is a beautiful bay offering 8 natural hot springs of varying temperatures – on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Situated along the shoreline, it offers eight natural hot springs of varying temperatures – mixing geothermal water with seawater from the ocean.

We’re driving through Hvalfjörður making our way towards Hvammsvík, unique hot springs located in Hvalfjörður. Fun fact about Hvalfjörður, during World War II, a naval base of the British and American navies was in this fjord. It also used to be the main road between Reykjavík and Borgarnes – until 1998, when a tunnel was built under the ocean to shorten the trip considerably. With little less than an hour drive from Reykjavík, Hvammsvík hot springs were opened to the public in 2022 and was recently named the Number 1 best thing to do in the world in 2023 by Timeout Magazine.
