Highlights - Landscape and history of Thingvellir National Park - Natural steam baths of Laugarvatn Fontana wellness centre - Fantastic view of lake Laugarvatn - Gullfoss waterfall cascading into the Hvítá river canyon - Erupting hot springs at Geysir geothermal area Touring the Golden Circle, visiting Þingvellir National Park, Gullfoss waterfall, and Geysir geothermal area is an amazing experience that is usually followed by peaceful exhaustion. Therefore we will visit the natural geothermal baths at Laugarvatn Fontana Spa after Þingvellir National Park to unwind and revitalise for a 2 hour break before continuing to Gullfoss waterfall and Geysir geothermal area. For almost a century locals in the community of Laugarvatn have been enjoying the healing powers of natural steam from a geothermal field at the edge of the lake. Built over this geothermal area, the Laugarvatn Fontana wellness centre features geothermal steam rooms, hot pools and outdoor mineral baths and a fantastic view over the lake. At Laugarvatn Fontana centre you will find Fontana café that offers a nice selection of healthy and locally produced delicacies and refreshments. The menu also includes soup of the day and trout from the lake which, is a great idea for those that just want to enjoy the facilities without going to the baths.
