The unique nature of Iceland is the main attraction of the Ice Country. National parks and the Valley of geysers, volcanoes and glaciers, waterfalls and fjords. The tiny capital of Reykjavik and tours to the lost islands.

The only country in the world where you sometimes have to take out a loan to pay for dinner is charming Iceland. The landscapes here are so far from the usual ones that they allow you to shoot fantastic films without any scenery. Climb a higher hill and stay in silence, immerse your tired body in the turquoise waters of the Blue Lagoon and catch the long-awaited relaxation, try the local herring and feel with your own taste buds why it is called “Icelandic gold“, hang out in the crowd of tourists near the Strokkur geyser in the Valley of Geysers, which hits the sky several times an hour, watch birds and symbols of Iceland puffins, including in the vicinity of the Bjargtangar Lighthouse… there are plenty of reasons to go soul and body to explore the sights of Iceland on the next flight, there is no reason to refuse to visit this amazing country.

The capital is Reykjavik, and the major cities are Kopavogur and Akureyri.

Iceland’s climate
Subarctic marine. The average temperature in August is +10 °C, in January -1 °C. Thanks to the Gulf Stream, the climate in the country is quite mild but very windy. In Reykjavik, the average temperature in January is about 0 °C, in July +11 °C, in the mountains it is colder. During the whole summer in Iceland there are “white nights”, but in December the daylight lasts no more than 5 hours.

It is better to come here in the summer, until the end of August: since September, hotels begin to close for the winter, the number of public transport flights is reduced, and nature itself is slowly beginning to hinder freedom of movement.

The main attractions of Iceland are natural: the Hecla volcano, geysers, and glaciers, the Landmannaleigar Valley, the Torsmerk Valley, the Westman Islands. Akureyri, the second-largest city in Iceland, is convenient to use as a base for exploring the surrounding area. From there, it is close to Husavik, Godafoss Falls, and Grimsey Island.

The rugged coast of the Western Fjords is one of the most beautiful areas of the country. There are very few tourists there — as well as local residents: in the main city, Isafjordur, today there are less than 3 thousand people.

Landmannalaugar is a must-visit mountain area in the southeast of the island. There are boiling hot springs, and in a radius of 10 km scattered many strange natural “artifacts”: fields of frozen lava, deep canyons, unreal blue lakes, snow slopes, smoking thawed with the smell of hydrogen sulfide.

Icelandic vodka Brennivin — the main unofficial alcoholic drink of the country, which is made from potatoes and cumin seeds. Its name literally translates as “burning wine”. The Icelanders themselves call this drink “Black Death”.

Iceland is a country of vivid impressions. Where else can you find a land where fantastic, lunar landscapes, dotted with craters and frozen lava, are adjacent to peaceful meadows where horses and sheep graze. And on top of dormant volcanoes, forests rustle, streams murmur, waterfalls, and geysers soar skyward.

People go to Iceland not only for bright impressions but also to improve their health: one of the most popular tourist destinations is spa tours. Their feature is extremely simple: they not only relax and heal the body but also have a positive effect on the psyche. The most beautiful views of Iceland, sea excursions where you can watch dolphins and whales, Icelandic fjords-all this helps to relax and restore your mental balance. Outdoor enthusiasts will also not be disappointed — in Iceland, nature is so original and unique that even an ordinary hiking trip for a couple of days will turn into a fabulous trip. And the abundance of rocks and mountains makes this region a real Mecca for climbers, rock climbers, and hang gliders.

The valley of the Thingvellir Nature Park is dotted with paths that you can wander through all day. In the park, there is a break in the continental plates of Eurasia and America, the largest lake in Iceland – Tingvalavaten, the fields of Ting, where the Althing sat — the first parliament of the Vikings, the pool of witches, in which unfaithful wives were drowned.

In the neighboring Valley of Geysers is the Geyser itself — the one whose name is now called all the hot fountains of the world. Nearby is another fountain, Strokkur, which works almost on schedule: it hits the sky every 5-10 minutes. Well, Gullfoss – a 30-meter waterfall is a superstar, always densely packed with tourists.
