Thjorsardalur

In proximity of the hotel, you will find Thjorsardalur, with many attractions of interest such as many different lava formations.
The valley is quite flat and full of lava after the repeated eruptions of Mount Hekla.

The small valley Gjain features small waterfalls, ponds and volcanic formations. Impressive rock cliffs like Vegghamrar are popular for climbing.
Thjorsardalur features hot spring area which is west of the waterfall. There you can bathe in a hot spring where hot- and cold water flows freely into the hot spring. Also, inside the valley is Haifoss, one of the highest waterfalls in Iceland where you can take breathtaking pictures.
