Der Goldene Kreis auf Island

Der Goldene Kreis ist fast ein "Muss", wenn man eine Island Rundreise macht. Der Thingvellir Nationalpark, der Gulfoss Wasserfall und die Geysire gehören dazu.

Wir sind nun schon ein paar Tage im Süden Islands unterwegs. Der Goldene Kreis ist ein Muss für einen Island Roadtrip! Wie du sicher schon in meinem letzten Blogbeitrag gelesen hast, sind mein Mann Dirk und ich im Winter auf Island unterwegs. Der Januar war einer der kältesten seit vielen Jahren, mit Unmengen von Schnee. Davon ist nichts mehr zu sehen, da es in den letzten Wochen wiederum…

Lidt gejser action :) #strokkur #strokkurgeyser #geysir #iceland #island #travel #travelling #caughtthetravelbug #keepuptheadventure #dennisgoesto (her: Geysir Geothermal area) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj95OnzqGAP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Next step in day one, Strokkur. Wound up accidentally hiking up a mountain because of some closures (walking 20m along the road was 100% a viable option, but I had to do things the hard way). I'm happy I did in the end though, because some distant shots were really fun. The bubbling thermal pools also made for some truly alien looking landscapes.

A column of water erupts every 4-6 minutes, reaching a height of 40 meters (about 131 foot).

Strokkur Geysir in Iceland, which translates to Gay sir in English I believe.

All my life I dreamed of visiting Iceland. Some 10 years ago, a familiar geologist who studies volcanoes showed me pictures of Iceland, where she went to the congress - and ... I really wanted to go there. In Iceland, everything I don't like is cold, wind, snow. Imagine - there is snow all around, and the water is warm, you can swim ... I'm not at all one of those who dives into the hole and walks without a hat into the minus, but I'm very interested in what will happen there ... How great it really is to lie in warm water, considering snowy peaks around? Also, how warm is it in there? Isn't this a conspiracy of photographers and walruses? And what happens to people when it's time to get out of the water? For me, all this is on the verge of fantasy, and therefore I especially want to experience it all for myself. See the Strokkur Geyser. I have completely childish questions about the geyser: how much noise do you make? What is the safe distance from you? How will the warmth from you feel at this safe distance? Well, a rhetorical question: is it really all on our planet? And even there are people who live all their lives a few tens of kilometers away from you? I want to make sure, is it true that waterfalls in Iceland are almost at every turn? Will I really get used to them so much on the second week of the trip that instead of frantically clicking the camera I will just wave my hand from the car window or lazily turn my head - “oh yes, another waterfall”. I want to go to the Hroynfossar lava waterfall, where the slopes are solidified lava, and the water is amazingly blue due to mineral salts. A separate story is the observation of animals. Well, how to visit Iceland and not see that dead end? This bird has never come across to me live, in any zoo. How do they move? Walk, swaying amusingly, like penguins? Do they make sounds, or are they silent? Or maybe I'll be lucky and, in addition to the dead end, I'll also see, it turns out, a rather cute arctic fox? Whales, sheep, which are also enough here, somehow don’t attract me much, but puffins and arctic foxes ... Well, what can you do, sometimes girls are just drawn to bad boys))

Ignore the horrible framing i couldnt see my phone but i saw the big geysir (his name is strokkur)

I also just have to share that yesterday I was going through my photos from my second trip to Iceland in 2017, and I went onto the wiki page for Geysir because I was trying to determine which of my photos was geysir and which was strokkur.

I learned that in 1894, Lord Craig/avon (ofc N0rthern lreland didn't exist then, he was just a whiskey distiller - but he'd go onto be our first PM, was a key player in the partition etc etc) bought the Geysir area and he was the one to start charging entry fees. He then got bored and gave it to his mate, who dropped the fees, and then in 1935 it was sold back to Iceland. I legit never knew 😭

Heute ging es, nachdem ich mich ohne irgendwo aufzulegen aus meinem wunderschönen aber hügeligen Stellplatz manövriert hatte, ziemlich früh auf die Fähre. Stimmungsvoll habe ich die westmännerinseln hinter mir gelassen - der Weg hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt. Da es ab morgen zwei Tage eher regnen soll, habe ich heute eine ganze Menge gemacht. Es ging ins Landeskunde auf den goldenen Zirkel und damit auch ein bisschen mehr rein in die Massen. Schön war's trotzdem. Am Hjálparfoss ging es noch sehr entspannt zu, und auch der Weg war heute ganz oft fotowürdig:-) Es ging durch riesige Lavafelder, in deren Hintergrund schon wieder schneebedeckte Berge den Horizont darstellten. Der Gulfoss war dann mehr als beeindruckend, sowohl durch seine Gewaltigkeit, als auch die hochprofessionelle touristische Nutzung dessen. Weiter ging es zum Strokkur, der zwar nicht mit den Geysiren Neuseelands mithalten kann, aber dafür alles gegeben hat. Übernachtet wird heute in Borg, ich glaube, ich bin die einzige Touristin und ansonsten feiern hier heute alle sehr gediegen ihren Nationalfeiertag. Ganze 6,50 Euro wollte der Betreiber des Campingplatzes von mir. Er war der Meinung, wenn man alleine reist, muss man auch nur die Hälfte zahlen, da die Preise immer zwei Personen beinhalten. Sehr sympathisch:-)

Top Ten things to do in Iceland

Iceland – a country in the northern part of the globe – conjures up myriad visuals in our minds. It's a land of undecipherable volcanoes, aurora borealis, rocky mountains, stunning waterfalls, and surreal landscapes.

Iceland Tourism strives to create awareness of the numerous beautiful and magical experiences to avail of while you are in this surreal country.

There's certainly a lot to see and things to do in Iceland, from hot springs to waterfalls, volcanoes, and glaciers. Check it out:

Plunge into the Blue Lagoon.

The Blue Lagoon is one of the most well-known international geothermal spas and Iceland's most prominent tourist destination. The water from the hot springs is incredibly healthful and advantageous to the skin, with temperatures around 39 degrees Celsius. You will feel like walking into a fantasyland when you visit the Blue Lagoon area.

 Cruise along the Golden Circle

The Golden Circle is Iceland's most famous day excursion. It is one of the most popular tourist routes, featuring stunning landscapes and fascinating history. Three popular sites along the road are Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss Waterfall, and Geysir Geothermal Area.

Take a whale-watching trip.

The Icelandic coastal waters are home to several dolphin and whale species. During the summer, the coasts of Iceland become the prime feeding grounds for whales and other large marine mammals, allowing you to see these incredible creatures in their natural environment. It is your first opportunity to discover a humpback or blue whale in action.

Witness the Northern Lights.

The Northern Lights are a magnificent sight on clear winter nights in Iceland. The aurora borealis is the name given to these dancing lights.

Iceland is a fantastic site, on the southern part of the Arctic Circle for viewing the aurora borealis. Witnessing this rare cosmic event is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure for space enthusiasts.

Explore Lake Mývatn

Iceland's most geologically active area Lake Mývatn is a renowned halt on Iceland's famous Ring Road. Beautiful lakes, volcanic craters, and birdlife abound in this surreal landscape. You can bathe in Mývatn Nature Baths while admiring the magnificent surroundings, ensuring a relaxing soak.

Snorkel in Silfra fissure

Silfra Fissure is the best diving spot on the planet. Silfra is the world's only spot where you can swim between two tectonic plates. Trip Advisor's 2019 Travelers' Choice Awards ranked Silfra snorkeling amongst the top ten things to do globally.

 View Incredible Geysers

Strokkur Geysir, a 50-minute drive from Reykjavik, is Iceland's most famous fountain geyser and is well-known worldwide. This active hot spring is a popular stop along the Golden Circle route.

Explore the bubbling mud pits and approximately 100 other smaller exploding geysers. Strokkur spurts water high into the air in short intervals. Year-round, the Geysir Center hosts exhibits and instructive programs.

Visit the Black Sand Beach

Reynisfjara black-sand beach on Iceland's southern coast has an ethereal appearance. This one-of-a-kind beach is distinguished for its black sand, and jagged sea stacks emerge from the often-ferocious Atlantic Ocean waves. Reynisfjara beach is a renowned filming location because of its spooky yet beautiful natural beauty.

Discover the Skaftafell Ice Cave.

This spot should be at the top of your list of things to do in Iceland if you want a spectacular glacier tour, breathtaking landscapes, and terrific hiking. The cave is drenched in beautiful blue light - if it is seen at the right moment. There is a beautiful icy world that is constantly shifting, altering, and waiting to be explored.

Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon

In a country full of breathtaking natural wonders, it's tricky to figure out one that stands above the rest. Even still, any consideration of Iceland's most beautiful sights must include the Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon. Take a boat ride through the massive ice pieces that have been detached from the glacier. Watch the birds flying above and cave formations with blue tints in this natural landscape.
