The park is situated in a rift valley where the Eurasian & North American tectonic plates meet, making it one of the only places in the world where you can see two continents drifting apart. It is also the site where Iceland's parliament, Althing, was founded in 930 AD, making it one of the oldest functioning parliaments in the world.

Leaving out Thingvellier National Park , it will drive of almost 45 mins The Strokkur Geysir is the most active geyser in the area, erupting every few minutes & reaching heights of up to 30 meters. What makes Strokkur Geysir unique is its predictability, as it erupts regularly and consistently. Visitors can anticipate the eruption by observing the pre-eruption bubbling & steam rising from the pool. The geyser's explosive display is a thrilling sight to witness and capture on camera. Aside from watching Strokkur Geysir erupt, visitors can explore the geothermal area & observe the various hot springs and steam vents. The surrounding landscape is otherworldly, with colorful mineral deposits and bubbling mud pools. There are also facilities in the area, including a visitor center, restaurants.Golden Falls It is a two-tiered waterfall that drops approximately 32 meters into a rugged canyon below. The waterfall is fed by Iceland's second largest glacier, the Langjökull, & its water is a stunning turquoise color due to the suspended sediment in the glacial meltwater. One of the unique features of Gullfoss is that it appears to disappear into the earth as it cascades down the two tiers. This illusion is created by the shape of the canyon & the mist that rises from the waterfall. The sound of the water crashing into the canyon is deafening & the mist that rises from the falls creates a beautiful rainbow on sunny days. It is 10 minute drive from Geysir Geothermal Area there are several things to do and see in the surrounding area. For example, visitors can take a hike along the nearby trails that offer stunning views of the waterfall & the surrounding countryside. There is also a visitor center that provides information about the history & geology of the area.Kerid Volcanic Crater is a stunning natural attraction located in southern Iceland. What makes it unique is its vividly colored blue-green lake that sits at the bottom of the crater, surrounded by steep walls of red volcanic rock. The crater itself is roughly 270 meters wide and 55 meters deep, with a circumference of around 1 kilometer. It is at 50 minute drive from Gullfoss Waterfall Geologically, Kerid is a caldera, formed by a volcanic eruption that occurred approximately 3,000 years ago. It is believed that the eruption caused the magma chamber beneath the volcano to empty, leading to the collapse of the land above it and the formation of the crater. Visitors to Kerid can take in the breathtaking views of the crater and lake from the rim, which provides a panoramic view of the surrounding area. Additionally, visitors can take a path down to the bottom of the crater to get an up-close look at the vibrant colors of the lake and the unique geology of the area.
