5. Seljalandsfoss / Gljúfrabúi
4. Svinafellsjokull
3. Jokusarlon
2. The Secret Lagoon in Fludir
1. Seljavallalaug
This was a trip highlight; it’s that swimming pool built into the side of the mountain. One of those places I’ll remember for the rest of my life. GPS won’t get you there, as it’s off the beaten path, and there’s no signs on the main road, but if you do end up driving, I’ll give you detailed directions to it. You park at a farm and it’s an easy hike for 15 minutes until you get to the pool.
