natural attractions. There is also a spouting hot spring called Strokkur erupts regularly or every 3-8 minutes.
Gullfoss: Is another place of the visits during the Golden Circle.
Gullfoss (Golden Waterfall) is an iconic waterfall of Iceland offering a spectacular view of the forces and beauty of untouched nature. Gullfoss located in South Iceland on the Hvítá (White) River which is fed by Iceland´s second biggest glacier, the Langjökull. The water plummets down 32 meters in two stages into a rugged canyon which walls reach up to 70 meters in height. On a sunny day, a shimmering rainbow can be seen over the falls.
Faxi: Is also part of the Colden Circle Faxi is a small but broad waterfall along the Tungufljót in an area of large, flat farmlands where one would not otherwise assume there to be waterfalls. Here the river stretches to a width of about 300 feet and plunges in a broad fall of 22 feet in height.
We also try to stop on the way to see some of the famously friendly Icelandic horses.
The Icelandic horse is a unique breed of smallish horses that came to Iceland with the first settlers from Norway 1100 years ago.
