The Secret LagoonThis used to be a place where the locals would wash their clothes and take baths. The first swimming lesson there took place in 1909 and was held every year until 1947. From 1947 the pool fell into oblivion, since there is a modern swimming pool in Flúðir, a town nearby.
Now the pool has very recently been renovated and reopened. The old greenhouses have been turned into changing facilities and there are many hot springs in the area, including tiny one that spouts water into the air every few minutes. |
How to get there:Take Route 1 South and turn left on route 30 until you get to the village of Flúðir. From there it should be simple enough to find Hvammsvegur and the Lagoon.
