Small group tour to Lake Mývatn, Goðafoss Waterfall and the Nature baths
Full description
Lake Mývatn and the surroundings are a must-see while exploring the North!
First, we drive along the coast of Eyjafjörður, one of the longest fjords in Iceland. We begin by stopping at Goðafoss waterfall, one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Iceland, on our way to Lake Mývatn, the lake was created by a large basaltic lava eruption 2300 years ago, and the surrounding landscape is dominated by volcanic landforms, including lava pillars and rootless vents.
We take a look at Grjótagjá cave and a stop at the hot spring area at Hverarönd in Námaskarð.
On the way back we come to the unique lava formations of Dimmuborgir which are among the most popular tourist attractions in the Lake Mývatn area, we stop also in Skútustaðagígar (pseudocraters area).
Our last stop is in Eyjafjörður where you can see over the fjord to Akureyri and take a great photo.
We are visiting different hot springs depending on the season: May-September we visit Forest Lagoon located right outside Akureyri
October-April we visit Earth Lagoon in the Lake Mývatn area.
