From Möðrudalur, drive to Europe's most powerful waterfall, Dettifoss, and explore the otherworldly geothermal landscapes of Námaskarð and Krafla before arriving in Húsavík.
Dettifoss & Selfoss
Visit the immense Dettifoss from the paved west side, then walk 1km upstream to the wider, elegant Selfoss. A short drive also reveals Hafragilsfoss downstream.
Hljóðaklettar (Echoing Rocks)
Explore the unique basalt rock formations and caves of Hljóðaklettar in Vesturdalur valley, created by the chaotic eruption of a volcano under a glacier.
Námaskarð (Hverir)
Walk through the martian landscape of Hverir, a high-temperature geothermal area with bubbling mud pots, steaming fumaroles, and a strong smell of sulfur.
Víti Crater (Krafla)
Visit the stunning, water-filled Víti explosion crater in the Krafla volcanic area. The turquoise water provides a beautiful contrast to the dark volcanic rock.
Mývatn Viewpoint
Pull over at a viewpoint along the eastern shore of Lake Mývatn to take in the panoramic views of the lake, its pseudo-craters, and the surrounding volcanic landscape.
