What to expect
Hverir, also known as the Námafjall Geothermal Area, is a unique and fascinating destination located in Northeast Iceland. The area is characterized by numerous smoking fumaroles and boiling mud pots, surrounded by colorful sulfur crystals that give off a strong smell of egg. The soil in the area has little vegetation due to the acidity caused by geothermal processes. Visitors can explore the area through a small hiking trail that leads up to Námaskarð pass and Námafjall mountain, offering stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The nearby Mývatn lake area and the Hverir geothermal fields are also worth exploring. With its otherworldly landscape and unique geological features, Hverir is a great place to visit for families interested in nature and geology
