There's plenty of lovely restaurants to choose from for a bite to eat.
Today you'll experience the natures phenomenon of Raufarholshellir lava tunnel as you explore it in an easy and enjoyable manner. A guide will lead you through the colourful landscape into the breathtaking natural cave. Equipment such as helmet and light are provided at the location, however it is highly recommended to wear warm overalls and sturdy shoes.

Afterwards, you'll head down to the lakeside to enjoy natural steam baths of Laugarvatn Fontana, including three geothermally heated baths, a sauna and access to the pristine waters of Lake Laugarvatn.
