Product Description
Just south of the international airport at Keflavik we find the Reykjanes toe. An area so bare it stings the eye. Very rugged lava fields laid out as if the whole area was one gigantic crater. Strangely enough this area has a mesmerizing appeal and the wealth of motives for the photographer is endless.
This is where one can find the first sights of the meeting of the continents. A rift in the landscape approx. 30 ft. wide. The bridge between continents is conveniently placed there ensuring safe passage between America and Europe (no passports needed).
The area is littered with open geothermal hot springs, clay- and mud pits giving the area a scent of sulfur in the air but more interestingly, a feel of danger all around.
When ever one drives form or to the airport, on the main highway, this place — Reykjanes — is missed along with Krísuvik. Two absolutely beautiful and breathtaking places that most tourists miss when visiting Iceland. This really is a shame as it only takes so little time to include in either arrival to or departure from Iceland.
