Going further north along the Ring Road, we headed to Myvatn. The only thing we planned to see along the way was Dettifoss (most powerful waterfall in Europe). It required a 25km detour off the Ring Road, then a 1km walk through snow, mud, etc. The hike was not difficult but it was a little messy (and wet). When we got to the falls it was beautiful but not as much as the ones we had previously seen.
The highlight of the day was the geological wonders of Hverir. We also hiked up Hverfjall (tuff ring volcano) but the size (too big), and color (black) did not work in my pictures so you will have to look it up :)
Another amazing day along Iceland's Highway 1 (Ring Road).
Hverir - see pictures below! Soooo cool! |
Mud pot - bubbling acid mud! |
Possible location for the next Star Wars? |
