A beautiful hike from the outskirts of Hveragerði, the town of hot springs and green house agriculture, into the beautiful valley of Reykjadalur. Up there hot water rushes down the slopes of Hellisheiði mountain range creating natural hot springs surrounded by pure and untouched Icelandic nature. The valley also has an amazing abundance of geothermal springs and you will witness everything from small gurgling melting pots to vibrant super heated pools of water. After strolling along these wonders of nature we hike back down into the town of Hveragerði.
This is a great half-day trek that everyone can participate in. Get in touch with the pure Icelandic nature on your own two feet
