Traveling through magnificent scenery we will arrive at the softer, greener, and totally surreal scenery around Lake Mývatn. We'll stop to admire the incredible geothermal fields at Namaskard (Námaskarð). You will be astounded by their multi-colored splendor, as technicolor mud pools bubble, steam vents hiss noisily, and a lunar-landscape surrounds you. The theme of unearthly vistas continues at the crazy lava formations at Dimmuborgir. This place is known as ´the Dark Castles’. Your guides will tell you how they were formed and share some local Icelandic folklore with you.
