Message from Nicole Zohdi

This is as close to mars as you will ever get! The Námafjall Hverir Geothermal Area is a must-visit stop in North Iceland, known for its bubbling mud pools, hissing fumaroles, and colorful mineral-rich grounds. The area, located near Lake Myvatn, offers a surreal experience with steam vents and the distinct smell of rotten eggs. Visitors can explore the geothermal wonders from designated trails and even embark on a rewarding 2.5-kilometer hike to Namafjall Mountain for stunning panoramic views. Don't forget your hiking shoes and a good rain jacket to fully enjoy this unique Icelandic attraction!
