Many consider Iceland as one of the most beautiful places on Earth with stunning and diverse terrain everywhere you can look. Jagged and multicolored mountain peaks, desolate lava fields, majestic waterfalls, northern lights and its brilliant glaciers can leave you mesmerized for a lifetime.
Everything about Iceland can amaze you but here is a list of Iceland’s most stunning sights.
Blue Lagoon
This manmade lake is fed by superheated seawater released from a nearby lava flow. The geothermal waters contain minerals like silica believed to have health benefits, but it’s the steaming lagoon surrounded by black lava rocks that most attracts visitors.
Golden Circle
This is a popular tourist route that includes Gullfoss waterfall, Geysir which is a hot spring and the Thingvellir National Park which is full of hiking trails and camping grounds.
Jokulsarlon Glacier
Few travel experiences in Iceland are more memorable than the sight and sound of an iceberg breaking off a glacier and crashing into the sea. The best place to witness this display of nature’s power is at the Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon.
Northern Lights
These magical lights, visible for almost 8 months in Iceland, are one of the wonders of the world. These are caused by solar particles entering the earth’s magnetic field and being drawn to the North Pole and is an incredible sight.
Ice Caves at Vatnajokull Glacier
In the depths of Vatnajökull Glacier, there is an ever-shifting, ever-changing, colorful icy world just waiting to be discovered. One must take a guided tour since the caves are constantly shifting and it is best to have a well-trained eye to ensure your safety.
