Despite only a few daylight hours and the advice of the locals to do otherwise... This is what it's like to take the 3.6 kilometre hike through the Reykjadalur valley to the Hveragerdi hot springs – in winter.
“To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.” ― Bill Bryson
All in Iceland
Despite only a few daylight hours and the advice of the locals to do otherwise... This is what it's like to take the 3.6 kilometre hike through the Reykjadalur valley to the Hveragerdi hot springs – in winter.
Sparkling lava fields, frozen waterfalls and steaming geysers surrounded by sheets of ice and snow; a visit to Iceland in winter is simply mesmerising.
