Description
Embark on an exclusive journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Iceland with the Private Secret Circle Tour. This personalized experience promises an unforgettable adventure, immersing you in the natural wonders of the Borgarfjörður area and culminating in a delectable culinary experience.
Start your journey at Europe's most powerful hot spring, Deildartunguhver. Witness the steaming, boiling waters that flow at an impressive rate of 180 liters per second. The hot spring's geothermal energy is used to heat neighboring towns, making it a vital resource for the region.
Marvel at the series of beautiful waterfalls at Hraunfossar, where water streams through a lava field and cascades into the Hvítá River. Just a short walk away, discover Barnafoss, known for its intriguing folklore and powerful, rushing waters.
Visit the historic site of Reykholt, once home to Snorri Sturluson, one of Iceland's most significant medieval figures. Explore the cultural heritage and learn about Iceland's rich literary history.
Delve into the depths of Viðgelmir, one of Iceland’s largest and most impressive lava caves. This guided tour takes you through a subterranean world adorned with stunning lava formations and ice sculptures, offering a glimpse into the volcanic activity that shaped Iceland's unique landscape.
Relax and rejuvenate at the Krauma Geothermal Baths, where you can soak in natural hot springs sourced from Deildartunguhver. Enjoy the serene atmosphere and stunning views. For those who choose the optional lunch, indulge in a meal at the Krauma Restaurant, featuring fresh, local ingredients and Icelandic culinary traditions.
Next, head to Grábrók, a volcanic crater located in western Iceland, near the town of Bifröst. It is part of a larger volcanic system formed around 3,000 years ago and offers an easy hiking path that leads to stunning views of the surrounding lava fields and nearby mountains. The crater is covered with moss and provides a great vantage point for observing the rugged Icelandic landscape.
Finally, visit Glanni, a picturesque waterfall situated not far from Grábrók, along the Norðurá River. It is believed to be the home of mythical elves or trolls according to local folklore. The waterfall cascades down several levels, creating a beautiful and serene spot for visitors.
