"Located aboutan hour northeast from Reykjavík and part of the famed Golden Circle tour (along with Gullfoss), the Geysir hot springsarea consists of arounda dozen hot water blowholes, including the eponymous Geysir. The Strokkur blowhole is the most popular, principally because it regularly(every few minutes, usually) spouts its boiling water up to 100 feet into the air. It’s still worth looking around at the other pools, even if they haven’t erupted for years or even decades, since they usually offer interesting colors and bubbling geothermal activity. The site also hasa hotel, souvenir shop, café, and a related exhibition."

Cool part of the Golden Circle with a geyser that erupts about every 5-10 minutes. Similar to Old Faithful in YSNP. The eruptions can be powerful or super weak so be prepared to stay for more than one! Come at sunset for a beautiful orange and yellow eruption. Beautiful area with a ton of steam. The main geyser is a quick 5 minute walk from the paid parking lot. Super cold in the winter.

One of the most beautiful places on the Golden Circle route is here. You can visit bubbling hot springs with temperatures between 80 and 100 degrees and eat the famous Icelandic soup at a nearby restaurant and enjoy your trip to Iceland.

An amazing geothermal area that reminded me a lot of of the old faithful area of Yellowstone. While the original Geysir is no longer active, there is another one named Strokker that does erupt on a regular basis. We saw several eruptions while we were there, and it seems every other one is big and the in between ones are rather small. There is a nice walking trail that takes you through boiling pools and steam vents as well. Plenty of parking, and a large restaurant and gift shop here as well.

What a Fantastic and wonderous scene. My wife and I have seen simillar view in New Zealand a few years ago. It have to visit place in Iceland.

Good place to see geysers here. There is a big one 20m every 4-7 minutes and a small 1m almost continuous one. If you want to see many more and much bigger ones go to Yellowstone.

I thought this was just going to be a geyser that a ton of people waited to see erupting, but it’s a fantastic beautiful area full of steam and springs and the star or the show the Strokkur geyser gifting us an eruption every 4-10 minutes. It was ADORABLE to see people clapping and cheering at the geyser, so happy and proud of her!!!! Adorable. And the walk is beautiful and it’s great to get thermal steam in your face and lungs. I loved this

🌫️📸 Iconic spot but very touristy The geyser is impressive and definitely something to see at least once. The eruptions can reach a surprising height. But the area felt very crowded and touristy. I think geysers are more magical in quieter, less busy places. Still, it’s a famous site for a reason.

Remarkable, entertaining, well kept, and easy to navigate. There are geysers of all sizes and shapes, some barely bubbling while others are shooting tens of meters high. The olace is sufficiently compact than you can easily walk through the import parts. The visitor center is one of the most well equiped of all of Iceland touristic spots. Not to be missed
