    Tips

    The spring features a cold-water stream flowing through the river approximately 164 feet (50 meters) from the hot pool. Despite having a muddy bottom, the water in this hot spring is pretty clear, and the temperature is not so hot, making it conducive for soaking and relaxing.

      Just go in, enjoy the pool and the great landscape and relax.

        A natural hot pot right on the river, with the sound of the waterfall in the background. Of the hot pots I've seen in Iceland, by far the nicest.
        The waterfall around the corner is also worth seeing.

            Warm water flows from small holes.
            Ideal for swimming, and next to it is a cold river for cooling off.
