Strokkur The Golden Circle is a popular tourist route in South Iceland, looping out of Reykjavík closer to central Iceland (where most of the sights are) and back to Reykjavík.
The three primary stops on the route are Þingvellir, Gullfoss, and the geothermally active valley of Haukadalur, which contains the geysers Geysir and Strokkur. Þingvellir is a national park containing both historical and natural beauties. Gullfoss, meaning golden falls, is a spectacular waterfall that is a must see. The two grand geysers, Strokkur and Geysir are both spectacles to watch.
Other less frequented stops include Kerið volcano crater, Hveragerði greenhouse village, Skálholt church, and the Nesjavellir geothermal power plant.
