- 1957Ottawa, Canada660 contributionsPart of our organized tour , we visited this fountain- type geyser located i a geothermal area. It is beside the Hvita River , southwest part of Iceland, east of the capital Reykjavík . You walk on the pathway , and not too close, the smell of sulphur is definitely in the air. There is no set cycle to the stream geyser eruption. It can sprouts as high as 30 meters high in the air every few minutes.Written 2 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Hannelore HUnited Kingdom245 contributionsIt is quite a unique natural landmark with imposing colours and beautiful surrounding landscapes. It is not huge though, more of a nice short walk up and around it.Written 10 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- billbevan01Sheffield, UK104 contributionsWe have been here every evening of our visit. There are a variety of swimming pools for serious swimmers and playing as well as a range of different temperature hot tubs, a steam room and sauna. Tickets are over 1000kr an adult but you can buy 10 for just over 4000kr which makes it great value if you’re staying in Selfoss. Children 10 and under are free! Also a great place to see Icelandic culture, and for kids to meet Icelandic children.Written 29 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Amanda LRochester, UK11 contributionsAn excellent day trip, our guide “Kevin” (because his real name was too hard to pronounce) was attentive, funny and made our trip even more enjoyable. We started with the glacier as the weather was due to turn, and he wanted us to see it without getting soaked. It was stunning, well worth the walk, although I would suggest if you have remotely slippery shoes, buy some grips. At times it was a bit of a struggle to find a non-slippery part of the path to walk on. Don’t let that put you off though...it was beeeeaauuutiful! Then on to black beach in Vik, followed by the two waterfalls (one of which featured in Game of Thrones) Walkways to the waterfalls was again quite slippery, sheet ice in places, but I genuinely didn’t see anybody fall, so as long as you take care, and have good grip on your shoes, it shouldn’t be a problem.
Kevin, brought samples of Icelandic food and drink for us all, and then dropped us off back in Reykjavik as near to our Airbnb as he could. I would highly recommend this trip, it was 10 hours with an 8am pick up, and worth every penny.Written 6 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
