- Bridge Between Continents - This symbolic bridge connects Europe and North America on the Reykjanes Peninsula. The lava-marked Reykjanes Peninsula is situated on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, one of the world’s significant plate boundaries. According to the continental drift theory, the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates are constantly moving apart with immense forces beneath the widening rifts. As the plates separate, linear fissures form due to the tension-induced stresses as the plates drift away from each other. The Bridge Between Continents is a small footbridge over a significant fissure, clearly demonstrating the presence of a diverging plate margin.
- Gunnuhver Hot Springs - Gunnuhver is the name of a remarkable and colorful geothermal field featuring various mud pools and fumaroles in the southwest part of the Reykjanes Peninsula. The mud pools form where steam from boiling geothermal reservoir water rises, condenses, and mixes with surface water. Accompanying gases like carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide make the water acidic, leading to the transformation of fresh lava rock into clay.
- Reykjanesta Lighthouse - Discover the stunning views of the cliffs and birdlife at Reykjanesta and admire the iconic Reykjanesviti lighthouse.
- Brimketill - Brimketill is a small, naturally carved pool formed by marine erosion at the lava shore edge west of the town of Grindavík.
- Grindavik - Enjoy lunch at Grindavik, a town that was evacuated due to eruptions and earthquakes in the area. The tour will include a drive around the town to observe the impact of recent events. Stops will be made at several locations where visitors can touch lava from recent eruptions and see the walls built around the Blue Lagoon and the town of Grindavik. For those interested, a hike can be taken to view the craters formed by recent events in Reykjanes.
- Seltún Geothermal Area - The return journey to Reykjavik will pass through Krisuvik and Kleifarvatn, with a stop at the Seltún geothermal area. At Seltún, visitors will see bubbling mud pools and steaming hot springs, creating a landscape that feels otherworldly.
