Escape the crowds and discover the hidden treasures of West Iceland on an unforgettable journey to Hvalfjordur and Hvammsvik Hot Springs. This off-the-beaten-track excursion promises a perfect blend of natural beauty, folklore, and rejuvenating relaxation.
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive out of Reykjavik, where you'll be greeted by the majestic Mount Esja, the guardian of the city. Pause to take in the views of Thórufoss waterfall, famous for its appearance in the Game of Thrones TV series. Take some memorable photos of this iconic waterfall.
Next, venture into the historic and remote Hvalfjordur settlement and to the Hvammsvik Geothermal Baths. Nestled by the ocean, these natural hot springs offer a rejuvenating experience like no other. With access to eight hot springs ranging from ocean temperatures to 42°C, this is a great opportunity to relax and unwind in the healing waters. For the adventurous, take a dip in the ocean or enjoy the steam baths and outdoor showers to warm up after your soak.
Head to Höfuthstöthin to enjoy a delicious lunch of traditional Icelandic lamb soup — often described as "Iceland in a bowl" — with fresh bread and a sweet treat. Explore the Chromo Sapiens exhibition/installation by Icelandic artist Shoplifter. Delving deep into the extravagant use of color, the installation encourages visitors to explore their inner landscape through stimulation of the senses.
