Jökulsárlón literally means “glacial river lagoon”. I’m sure you have heard about this beautiful natural wonder of Iceland. The lagoon is located on the south-east side of the country and can be seen from the main road nr. 1 so if you are surfing around in this area you have to make a stop there.
The Namafjall geothermal field is located in Northeast Iceland, on the east side of Lake Myvatn.Â
At this area, also known as Hverir, you may see many solfataras and boiling mud pots, surrounded by sulfur crystals of many different colours. The area is quite smelly but something one gets used to after a while. The soil in the area has little growth and is sour due to erosion and the sulfur from the atmosphere. Indeed, the old rock-covered boreholes in the area give off a lot of hot steam.
Caution is advised.
Þingeyjarsýsla county is home to many incredible sites.
Particularly due to the fact that the Lake Mývatn region is nestled within it. This beautiful area is renowned for its lava formations, pseudocraters and rich birdlife.

Near Mývatn is the impressive lava field Dimmuborgir which featured in the Game of Thrones series.
There is also the incredible waterfall Godafoss, a beautiful feature between the lakes and Akureyri.
