Steam Valley
Iceland is located over a rift in continental plates, which causes a high concentration of both geothermal activity and volcanoes. Reykjadalur is a hot spring that is located about 45 minutes east of Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital city. On the walk to the spring’s entrance, visitors will encounter bubbling pots such as the ones recorded here, captured in 2015.
