VOK BATHS
Read moreThe Vök Baths are Iceland's only floating infinity pools! Located on the shore of Lake Urriðavatn, just a few minutes from the town of Egilsstaðir, here you'll find floating geothermal pools with endless views, two hot pools on the shore, a sauna, a cold-water spray tunnel, a tea bar, a pool bar and an on-site restaurant, the Vök Bistro. Still very authentic and untouched by tourism, this is an incredible place to enjoy a total wellness experience.

BUSTARFELL OPEN-AIR MUSEUM
Read moreThe old Bustarfell peat farm (several lined buildings), well preserved, is one of Iceland's most beautiful folk museums. The oldest part of the farm dates back to 1770. Easily recognizable by its red-painted gables, it is made up of 6 small houses connected between them by the stone insulation mudas and covered with peat roofs. Coffee on the spot. Well-marked access from Highway 85 to the southwest of Vopnafjörður.
VISIT AUSTURLAND - OFFICE DE TOURISME EST ISLANDE
Read moreOften overlooked by travellers who only have a few days to discover Iceland, Austurland, or the Eastern Fjords region, has many geographical wonders in store for you. The Eastern Fjords feature spectacular coastlines, impressive mountains and walls of water, magnificent high plateaus and narrow or immense fjords. If you're looking for Iceland's most scenic roads or cultural and family experiences, don't wait any longer!
CANYON STUDLAGIL
Read moreStuðlagil Canyon is, in our opinion, Iceland's most beautiful canyon and well worth a visit! Its enchanting turquoise waters are matched only by the surrounding basalt organs, making for a truly breathtaking spectacle.
To get there, from Route 1, take Route 923 (you'll see a sign pointing the way to the canyon). You'll then have to drive for about twenty kilometers on a gravel road. You can admire the canyon from the east by parking at the Klaustursel farm, or from the west by parking at the Grund farm.
For a closer look at the canyon, it's best to take the eastern route. Park at the parking lot and start your hike along the river after crossing a wooden bridge. Don't worry, it's well signposted. Admire the Stuðlafoss waterfall along the way and continue until you reach the canyon's most beautiful viewpoint about 1 hour after starting your hike.
From here, enjoy the view and take as many photos as you can! It is possible to descend to the bottom of the canyon, but be careful. The rocks can be slippery, and there can be a strong current if you fall (as well as the risk of getting a nasty chill).
The site is very busy in summer, but that's also when the canyon waters are at their most beautiful! To enjoy the site in more tranquil surroundings, it may be worthwhile sleeping in one of the nearby accommodation options, such as a hotel or campsite.
