A volcano's eruption is not something you experience every day of your life or even on holiday. But you’re heading for Iceland, and it’s a country that has had plenty of volcanic activity in the past. So why not take the time then to study and enjoy the geologic mysteries of this region.
These eruptions have been shaking the very foundations of Iceland in recent times, especially the Reykjanes Peninsula. Activity that has long been predicted. So get those hiking shoes ready as you walk to the Volcano, and then relax and enjoy time at the Blue Lagoon. Ah, bliss.
Your guided tour takes you to a new eruption site. You’ll be taken to the starting point by bus, and then it’s on foot the rest of the way.
Behold the youngest volcano in Iceland, Fagradalsfjall Volcano, and the surrounding lava fields. Hike up the crater to explore the devastating yet beautiful aftermath of this recent volcanic eruption. See the bridge between continents and take a stroll between the continental plates that divide the peninsula.
Then, it’s onto the Blue Lagoon to relax in the thermal waters, a chance to rest those aching limbs after such an enlightening experience. With a free silica mud mask and a drink from the in-water bar, well, you can raise your glass to an extraordinary day.
