Day 2: Golden Circle Wonders
4 stops

Kerid Crater
Begin your Golden Circle journey at Kerið, a striking volcanic crater formed around 3,000 years ago. The caldera’s steep slopes of red and black volcanic rock plunge into a tranquil lake that glows turquoise under shifting Icelandic light. Walk along the rim for panoramic views or descend the winding path to the water’s edge, where reflections of the crater walls create surreal mirror images. Kerið’s vivid colors—especially under snow or golden sunlight—make it a photographer’s dream. Its tranquil atmosphere contrasts beautifully with the power of the volcanic forces that shaped it, reminding visitors of Iceland’s ever-changing landscape.

Gullfoss
Next, stand in awe before Gullfoss, Iceland’s “Golden Falls.” Fed by glacial meltwater from the Langjökull Glacier, the Hvítá River plunges dramatically into a rugged canyon in two mighty tiers. Approach the falls along the wooden walkways and feel the cool mist rise as sunlight weaves rainbows through the spray. In winter, the icy cliffs glisten with frost, while summer brings deep greens and long daylight hours. Once threatened by hydroelectric development, Gullfoss was saved by the courage of a local woman, Sigríður Tómasdóttir—her story now immortalized at the site. Today, Gullfoss remains a proud symbol of Iceland’s fierce commitment to preserving nature’s power and beauty.

Geysir
Continue to the Geysir Hot Spring Area in Haukadalur Valley, a living example of Iceland’s geothermal might. Steam vents hiss from the earth and bubbling pools gurgle all around, filling the air with the scent of sulfur. Every few minutes, Strokkur—the most active geyser—erupts suddenly, shooting boiling water up to 30 meters (98 feet) into the air. Capture the moment against a backdrop of colorful mineral deposits and rising steam. The experience perfectly encapsulates Iceland’s volcanic energy and the raw, untamed spirit of its landscapes. This is nature performing live—no human choreography required.

Thingvellir National Park
End the day at Thingvellir, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the birthplace of Iceland’s democracy. Here, you can literally walk between continents as the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates drift apart, forming a dramatic rift valley. Thingvellir’s beauty is matched by its cultural importance—it was here that Iceland’s first parliament, the Althing, convened in 930 AD. Explore winding trails lined with lava formations, clear fissures filled with glacial water, and sweeping views of Lake Thingvallavatn. As the sun dips low, golden light spills across the valley, highlighting the balance between earth’s power and Iceland’s deep-rooted sense of history.
