Description

A North Iceland shore excursion to Lake Mývatn and Goðafoss, planned for strong scenery within cruise timing.

Goðafoss, Lake Mývatn create a richly varied experience designed to make the landscapes of the north feel vivid, accessible and genuinely memorable.

Itinerary

1

Goðafoss

The spectacular Waterfall of the Gods

Watch glacial water sweep across a broad horseshoe of dark rock before dropping in a brilliant white curtain. Goðafoss combines beauty, power and one of Iceland’s defining conversion-era stories, making it far more than a roadside waterfall and a magnificent gateway to the Lake Mývatn region.

2

Lake Mývatn

A volcanic lake alive with colour and birdlife

Shallow blue water, green wetlands, black lava and crater-shaped hills meet around Lake Mývatn, creating one of Iceland’s richest volcanic landscapes. The lake is internationally celebrated for birdlife, yet its greatest appeal is the constantly changing contrast between water, lava and open northern sky.
