Halbtagestour Reykjanes

Reykjanes Peninsula – What to Keep in Mind When Visiting a Volcanic Eruption
The Reykjanes Peninsula, located about an hour’s drive south of Reykjavik, was long somewhat neglected by travelers despite its many attractions. It is, of course, famous for its geothermal areas Gunnuhver, Seltún-Krýsuvík, and the Blue Lagoon. Since March 2021, however, the peninsula has become known for its volcanic eruptions.

Caution when stopping on Icelandic country roads!
Dear travelers, Please do not park your vehicles in the middle of the road. Especially not when the road is narrow or visibility is poor. Stopping abruptly just because you see Icelandic horses in an Icelandic pasture is not a good idea. You are not only putting yourself or your rental cars (which you probably paid a lot for) at risk, but also other road users! Just take a few extra steps or wait until you find a safe place to pull over. The speed limit on country roads is 90 km/h, and that's what people do here. At least. With the usually low traffic volume, you don't expect to find a car p
A Beginner's Guide to Northern Lights Photography
What are Northern Lights? The Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, and the Southern Lights, or Aurora Australis, are natural light displays in the sky, primarily seen in the high-latitude regions around the Earth's magnetic poles. These luminous phenomena are caused by collisions of energetic charged particles with atoms in the Earth's upper atmosphere.
