If you prefer to walk, there are various hiking trails leading up to the Perlan Museum. The entrance fee of €36.00 is well worth it - a great museum. There is also a restaurant in the museum, and food is available until 6 p.m.

On the Öskjuhlíð hill, one of the highest points in Reykjavík, sits majestically the Perlan - the pearl. This glass dome, the result of Ingimundur Sveinsson's visionary design, attracts attention from afar. Whatever the weather, it plays with the colors of the sky, reflects the day and at night conjures up a starry illusion in the Icelandic sky with the help of 942 light bulbs. On clear nights, the mirrors in the building even capture the enchanting northern lights and bring their dance inside. But Perlan is not just a feast for the eyes. Here the city is supplied with geothermal hot water, which is obtained from depths of up to 2000 meters. This hot water flows in six huge aluminum tanks, five of which are still in use and each can hold up to four million liters of water. Thanks to the elevated location of the Perlan, the 85°C hot water can reach the city without additional pumps. As you climb the hill, Perlan rewards you with a panoramic view of Reykjavík that extends deep inland. From the viewing platform on the tanks you feel like you're on top of the world. Are you hungry or thirsty? A revolving restaurant awaits you on the top floor, with a panoramic view that makes every meal an experience. But the Perlan has even more surprises. Enter the man-made ice cave, a masterpiece by Susan Christianen and Johan Larsson, and immerse yourself in the cold wonders of Iceland. Or be fascinated by the artificial geyser, which shoots up its water column at regular intervals. For history fans, it is also worth taking a detour to the Saga Museum, which housed one of the tanks until 2014. Right next to the Perlan, the park invites you to take a leisurely walk. Breathe in the fresh Icelandic air, feel the wind on your skin and let your gaze wander once again over this impressive city. Perlan is a testament to how people manage to combine functionality and art. A building that celebrates both the power of nature and human ingenuity.

excellent panoramic view but also a point of interest for permanent exhibitions and for the showroom on volcanic eruptions
