• Godafoss - Goðafoss, known as the “Waterfall of the Gods,” is one of Iceland’s most stunning waterfalls. Its broad, horseshoe shape and powerful cascade make it a standout attraction in the North. Legend has it that the lawspeaker Þorgeir discarded pagan idols into the waterfall when Iceland embraced Christianity over a millennium ago. The water originates from Vatnajökull, Iceland’s largest glacier, and the waterfall’s color shifts from deep blue to milky glacial hues depending on the light. On sunny days, a beautiful rainbow often appears above the falls. It’s a place that exudes both power and tranquility, ideal for capturing unforgettable photos and savoring the moment.
• Skutustaoagigar - This is a globally unique location, with pseudocraters found only in a few places worldwide: here in North Iceland, in Hawaii, and even on Mars. These formations were created when hot lava flowed into the lake, trapping water beneath. As the water rapidly turned to steam, pressure built up until it exploded through the surface, forming these crater-like structures. Unlike true craters, they were not formed by an eruption from below, but by powerful steam explosions. Today, it’s a serene area with stunning views over Lake Mývatn, perfect for a leisurely walk and photography.
• Dimmuborgir Lava Formations - Dimmuborgir, or the “Dark Fortress,” is one of Iceland’s most enchanting locations. This expansive lava field is filled with extraordinary rock formations that resemble a scene from another world, part fairy tale, part fantasy landscape. According to Icelandic folklore, this is where trolls reside, along with the famous Yule Lads, mischievous Christmas figures. As you wander through the area, you might begin to see shapes in the rocks—troll faces, creatures, animals, or even hidden figures. It all depends on your imagination. It’s a place that sparks creativity and curiosity, perfect for a relaxed walk, exploration, and capturing truly unique photos.
• Grjotagja - Grjótagjá is a small lava cave that invites you to step inside and discover its hidden wonders, and it’s absolutely worth it. Inside, you’ll find intensely blue, hot geothermal water that appears almost unreal against the dark volcanic rock. From the outside, it may seem unassuming, but once inside, it’s a completely different experience. Right next to the cave, you’ll find visible tectonic cracks where you can stand between two continents—the North American and Eurasian plates. It’s one of the few places in the world where you can clearly see the Earth slowly pulling apart. A brief stop, but undoubtedly one of the most unique and memorable parts of the tour.
• Dettifoss Waterfall - Dettifoss is the second most powerful waterfall in Europe, with an average water flow of around 193 cubic meters per second. It is situated in Vatnajökull National Park, and the river Jökulsá á Fjöllum, which feeds the waterfall, originates from Europe’s largest glacier. The power of this place is palpable even from a distance—as you approach the waterfall, you might even get completely soaked by the mist. On sunny days, a rainbow often appears, sometimes even two. This location also served as a filming site for scenes from the movie Prometheus. If time and conditions permit, a visit to the nearby Selfoss waterfall is also possible—smaller than Dettifoss, but equally beautiful, stretching wide across the river. Selfoss is located in the same river canyon as Dettifoss, on the Jökulsá á Fjöllum river, creating one of the most spectacular landscapes in North Iceland.
• Viti Crater - The Viti crater was formed during a volcanic eruption of the Krafla volcano in 1724. Today, a lake fills the crater, known for its changing colors—from deep blue to turquoise and milky green, depending on light, weather, and mineral content. Krafla is an active volcanic system, and the surrounding area is one of Iceland’s most significant geothermal regions. Nearby, you can find one of the largest and most modern geothermal power plants in the country. This place reveals Iceland from the inside—raw, active, and constantly evolving.
• Namafjall Hverir - The Viti crater was formed during a volcanic eruption of the Krafla volcano in 1724.
