About
Natural pool. Water temp varies but usually comfortable. Bring your own towel.
Hveravellir is a geothermal field of the Oddnýjarhnjúkur-Langjökull volcanic system -Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈlauŋkˌjœːkʏtl̥] in the north of the Langjökull glacier.
Steam rises around you as you sink into naturally heated water. The contrast of warm water and cold air is pure Iceland.
Natural hot springs vary in temperature - some spots are scalding, others barely warm. Test with your hand first, always.
