That is the final a part of my journey to Iceland. A visit so genuine, that actually made me love this place without end.
ΜΥ TRIP TO ICELAND – DAY 3
If you’ll be able to go to Iceland, neglect the lengthy naps; for a very good cause although. The white nights, particularly through the first days of summer time when the day is longer, are price your early get up. You should have the chance to benefit from the lengthy(er) day!
EXPLORING THE BLACK BEACH
The Black Seashore or Reynisfjara is on the South aspect of the island and is globally recognized for its black sand. It’s near the fishing village Vík í Mýrdal and you may simply method it. The fierce Atlantic ocean ‘hugs’ the seashore whereas the entire image of it’s a little bit… unearthly. Iceland may be thought of as an enormous volcano since it’s actually above many volcanoes; so it isn’t unusual that this seashore has been made out of ashes and lava.
It has been within the prime ten listing with the most effective, most particular seashores worldwide and let’s not neglect that Mom of Dragons walked right here -thumbs up for those who’re a GOT fan-.
ΤΗΕ SELJALANDSFOSS WATERFALL
Subsequent cease was the well-known and most Instagram-pleasant waterfall, named Seljalandsfoss, Its quick access makes it some of the effectively-recognized locations within the island. It is inconceivable to go to it by yourself; you’ll in all probability discover different guests too as they will attain it by the south aspect of the island.
The waterfall is 60 metres excessive! Adventurous or not, it is best to take the possibility to stroll behind the quick-flowing water. However do not forget to have waterproof garments and the best footwear!
CROSSING THE THOR VALLEY
The Thor Valley (god of Scandinavian mythology) or else, Þórsmörk area, was the place the place we selected to spend our final afternoon. The area could be very huge and extends principally to the South a part of the island, surrounded by many canyons, valleys, caves and mountains; the magic nature of Iceland is present in only one place
Plus: for those who love bodily actions in nature, like climbing, strolling or simply cave exploring, this place will turn out to be your favourite!
And since I’m one too, I believe I deserved the AMAZING BBQ that adopted.# Sorry, I needed to. Conventional scorching canines in the course of nowhere –wonderful expertise; simply like its onions!
COFFEE STOP AT GLUGGAFOSS WATERFALL
Proper after the Sizzling Canine meal, we had some espresso and scorching chocolate with a view to Gluggafoss Waterfall.
Its geology is what makes this waterfall so distinctive. It is truly a mixture of waterfalls that are linked to the Merkjá river. All of them create the primary waterfall which is named Merkjárfoss What can also be particular concerning the reference to the river, is the creation of tunnels and “home windows”, the well-known “gluggar” ones, from which the water flows.
If you wish to benefit from the view behind the waterfall, haven’t got second ideas; simply do it!
THE ICELANDIC HIGHLANDS
And that was the second I bought at Highlands of Iceland. Spell “magic”.
The Highlands of Iceland are prolonged to an space of 40,000 sq. metres whereas the South ones had been created after the final Ice Age. When the ice melts and the character is obvious from it, the surroundings is totally dreamy. You need to go to this space, particularly in spring and even summer time, and lay upon the mossy floor -it’s the most effective floor you will see in the entire island!
You may come by automotive, as somewhere else within the island too, however be sure to ask the locals for the spots which are price to go to.
I promise I’ll get again with glacier footage and Northern Lights!
