????️ Mývatn Lake and Dettifoss/Selfoss waterfalls (Iceland)
A visit to the Dettifoss and Selfoss waterfalls and the Mývatn Lake area in Iceland including the Krafla geothermal power station; the Námafjall geothermal area; Kalfarströnd lava columns; Dimmuborgir; Kirkjan lava tube; Skútustaðagígar pseudocraters and the Mývatn Nature Baths.
ICELAND: Námafjall & Mývatn
Recorded September 5, 2008.
Námafjall is a high-temperature geothermal area with fumaroles and boiling mud pools. At a depth of 1000 meters the temperature is above 200 degrees C. As is characteristic for other hot spring areas
there is a hot spring smell at Námafjall which is caused by the steam and the fumarole gas, such as hydrogen sulfide.
Mývatn is a shallow eutrophic lake situated in an area of active volcanism in the north of Iceland, not far from Krafla volcano. The lake and its surrounding wetlands have an exceptionally rich fauna of waterbirds, especially ducks. The lake was created by a large basaltic lava eruption 2300 years ago, and the surrounding landscape is dominated by volcanic landforms, including lava pillars and rootless vents (pseudocraters).

Iceland Day 4 Jökulsárlón and Lake Myvatn
Around Lake Mývatn : -Leirhnjúkur -krafla -Hverarond
Three active sites near Krafla mountain near Lake Mývatn Iceland.
(1) Leirhnjúkur - on the way to Krafla steam out of the surface and you see the layers of new LAVA covering older layers.
(2) krafla lake This is the lake on the mountain (not the top)
(3) Hverarond - On the ring road, water are steamed out of the ground and there are mud bubbles
You can walk around but be carful not to go off the path since you can be burned.

It’s also part of Golden circle and is included in all Iceland tours. the Mývatn District of Iceland's Northeast Region. It’s also part of Golden circle and is included in all Iceland tours. The lake area is beautiful. The walk around the lake with all the lava flows and Fields and just bizarre shapes is amazing. This an amazing lake, great for birdwatchers and walkers alike.
Many other geological and thermal sights are nearby (Námafjall, Krafla Lava Fields, Myvatn Nature Baths, Hverarond). This large lake features amazingly clear water, a number of spectacular hills/islands, looking like soufflés which caught cold.
See the pseudo craters at the south end and read how they are formed. This region is worth a full day.

TJORNES PENINSULA, AKUREYRI, LAKE MYVATN, ICELAND
TJORNES PENINSULA, AKUREYRI, LAKE MYVATN ICELAND
Tjörnes is a peninsula situated at the northeast of Iceland, between the fjords of Öxarfjörður and Skjálfandi. Tjörnes is known for its particularly dense population of Rock Ptarmigan and the rich fossil record of Miocene - Pliocene age.
Akureyri [ˈaːkʰʏrˌeiːrɪ] ( listen) is a town in northern Iceland. It is Iceland's second largest urban area (after the Greater Reykjavík area) and fourth largest municipality (after Reykjavík, Hafnarfjörður, and Kópavogur).
Nicknamed the Capital of North Iceland, Akureyri is an important port and fishing centre, with a population of 17,754. The area where Akureyri is located was settled in the 9th century but did not receive a municipal charter until 1786.
Mývatn is a shallow eutrophic lake situated in an area of active volcanism in the north of Iceland, not far from Krafla volcano. The lake and its surrounding wetlands have an exceptionally rich fauna of waterbirds, especially ducks. The lake was created by a large basaltic lava eruption 2300 years ago, and the surrounding landscape is dominated by volcanic landforms, including lava pillars and rootless vents (pseudocraters). The effluent river Laxá is known for its rich fishing for Brown Trout and Atlantic Salmon.
The name of the lake (Icelandic mý (midge) and vatn (lake); the lake of midges) comes from the huge numbers of midges to be found there in the summer.
Námafjall Hverir Geothermal Area near Lake Mývatn in North Iceland - Krafla Caldera
We made the drive from Dettifoss back to the Ring Road and continued our journey west on the Ring Road. As we came over a hill, we started to smell sulfur and saw steam coming up from the ground. Right off the Ring Road is Námafjall Hverir, a geothermal area that is part of the Krafla caldera. Námafjall Hverir contains boiling mudpools and steaming fumaroles (an opening in the earth's crust usually near volcanoes which emits steam and gases).

Myvatn hot thermal north Iceland
The Námafjall Geothermal Area is located in Northeast Iceland, on the east side of Lake Mývatn.
At this area, also known as Hverir, you will see many smoking fumaroles and boiling mud pots, surrounded by sulphur crystals of many different colours. This sulphur gives the area an overwhelming smell of egg.
The soil in the area has little vegetation due to the acidity caused by these geothermal processes.
Around the area is a small hiking trail up to Námaskarð pass and Námafjall mountain, which returns to the highway and the parking lot.
In 1969 a geothermal power plant was built west of the Námafjall Area. The plant currently produces 3MW of geothermal energy.
Concerns have raised over current plans to expand the plant to 90 MW. In particular, there have been worries in regards to the effect of the plant on the delicate ecosystem of Lake Mývatn. The head of an environmental NGO has recently called for a new environmental impact assessment on the plans, and the matter continues to be debated
