Lake Mývatn Tour Showcases North Iceland’s Volcanoes, Waterfalls and Geothermal Beauty


Travellers in North Iceland are being offered a guided excursion through the Lake Mývatn region, a landscape shaped by ancient volcanic eruptions and ongoing geothermal activity. The journey begins with a scenic drive along Eyjafjörður, one of Iceland’s longest fjords, setting the stage for a day of dramatic natural contrasts.


A key early stop is Goðafoss Waterfall, where powerful glacial water cascades through a wide, horseshoe-shaped rock formation. The route then continues into the Lake Mývatn area, formed over 2,300 years ago by a massive basaltic lava eruption that created a unique volcanic terrain.


Visitors explore striking geological sites including Hverarönd in Námaskarð, known for steaming hot springs and mineral-rich ground, as well as the towering lava formations of Dimmuborgir and the Skútustaðagígar pseudocraters. The journey also includes views of Dettifoss, one of Europe’s most powerful waterfalls, adding to the region’s raw natural intensity.


The return leg offers a panoramic viewpoint over Eyjafjörður toward Akureyri before concluding with an optional visit to the Forest Lagoon. Here, guests can relax in warm geothermal waters and enjoy on-site refreshments, providing a peaceful end to a day defined by exploration, geology, and natural beauty.
