Discover the bubbling, steaming mud pools and vents at Gunnuhver in southwest Reykjanes on an exciting sightseeing adventure! Legend has it that Gunnuhver is named after a mischievous female ghost who once haunted the area. As you explore this geothermal wonderland, you can watch as boiling water mixes with surface water, creating fascinating mud pools and releasing gases like carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide. Don't miss the chance to feel the power bursting from the ground, hear the vigorous noise, and see the steam up close at Iceland's largest mud pool. Get ready for a thrilling experience at Gunnuhver - where nature puts on a spectacular show!
