Geysir

Strokkur §

The main attraction at Geysir is Strokkur, a geyser that supposedly erupts about every 10 minutes. While we were there, it seemed to erupt about every 5 minutes! We saw more than half a dozen eruptions, and the height varied a lot.

Geysir §

The namesake of Geysir, this geyser is a stone’s throw from Strokkur, but nowadays is dormant. Still, it was exciting to see Geysir up close even though there were no eruptions.

Little Geysir §

On the way to Strokkur, we passed a small bubbling pool signed as “Little Geysir”.

Other sights §

There are a series of hot pools higher up above Strokkur and Geysir. We saw one last lupine of the season, and there was a good view to mountains in the distance.
