Is it fun to go to Iceland in winter? Can you see the aurora in Iceland in winter?

Iceland has two tourist seasons a year, one is summer, which is warm, comfortable and beautiful, and the other is winter, which is relatively cold, but fortunately, the scenery is white and shocking! What's interesting here in winter? I believe you will have a good time!

1. Is Iceland fun in winter?

Iceland in the winter of 2008 is still very interesting, because there are not only natural landscapes related to snow, but also aurora, so it is very interesting, although it is very cold.

2. Can Iceland see the aurora in winter?

In Iceland, the best season to watch the aurora is 10 to March of the following year. So going to Iceland in winter is the most likely season to see the aurora.

The northern lights don't appear regularly every day in winter. Whether you can see the aurora depends not only on the thickness of the clouds in the night sky, but also on your own strength. Watching colorful aurora dancing gently in the clear and calm night sky, there are white, green and even pink and purple, that feeling will never be forgotten!

3. Recommended attractions for traveling to Iceland in winter.

Blue lagoon

When you come to Iceland, you must go to the Blue Lake Hot Spring, which is located in Green Davic, janus Lake Peninsula in the southwest of Iceland.

The water temperature of the blue lagoon is about 3739C, and the lake water is rich in minerals such as silicon and sulfur, which can nourish and moisturize the skin. It is soaked in the milky blue lake, surrounded by spectacular volcanic rocks, and it feels very strange.

There are two kinds of tickets: comfort tickets (with bath towels and drinks) and luxury tickets (with extra bathrobes and slippers). Official website suggested booking tickets in advance. You can enjoy free natural masks and drinks at any price.

Hot spring facilities are super complete, with dressing room, shower room and dressing room. After changing into a bathing suit, you can soak in hot springs and enjoy blueberry smoothies. If it snows that day, it really feels like ice and snow. Awesome!

Skaf tafel

Vatna ice sheet is one of the largest glaciers in Europe. In Game of Thrones, most scenes of the Great Wall and the north of the Great Wall were shot in Waterner Glacier National Park.

Glacier hiking is a characteristic experience of Vatna Glacier. How can you come to Iceland without close contact with glaciers! You can choose your own hiking time. Tour guides will distribute hiking equipment, including crampons, skates and helmets. Armed to the teeth, he looks quite professional. It is suggested that people with good physical strength choose longer hiking time and see more magnificent scenery.

Lan Bing Cave

Lan Bing caves are naturally formed and hidden on the edge of glaciers. Every summer, glacier melt water will build an underground passage, and in winter it will solidify into an ice cave. Generally speaking, the ice cave is only open in June and March of 165438+ every year. So only in winter can we meet such beautiful scenery.

The location, size, shape and number of ice caves are different every year. Every ice cave is a masterpiece of nature. It is built entirely by natural forces, and it is always forming and changing. Every moment in the ice cave is unique. Every year, the glacier guide will look for newly formed ice caves and check their stability and suitability for entry. Now that the weather is getting warmer, I don't know how long this scenery will last, so please do it well and cherish it!

Singral national park

Singlear National Park is located 54 kilometers northeast of Reykjavik, a 50-minute drive. This place is a must-see attraction in Iceland. In 2004, Sinville National Park was listed on the World Cultural Heritage List by UNESCO.

There is no admission fee in this national park, but there is a charge for parking, and so is the bathroom.

There are two submarine canyons (Silfra and Davsgj) in the National Park for diving. These canyons are all over 200 feet deep, making them sacred places for extreme deep-hole diving. The diving here belongs to scuba diving. Divers carry oxygen cylinders and breathe oxygen in them for a long time.

Gold Falls

Gullfoss, also known as Jude Falls, is one of the three major scenic spots in Reykjavik (the golden ring also includes geysers and former parliament sites). The film "Putuo Mysius" and Interstellar were both shot here.

It is located in the northeast of Reykjavik 125km, with a height of 70m and a width of 2500m, with the longest drop of 21m.. It is the largest fault canyon waterfall in Iceland. Two waterfalls are formed in the upstream, and the downstream gradually narrows into a swift torrent. This river is yellow. At dusk, the waterfall will be dyed golden by the sunset, so it is called "Golden Waterfall". If it is sunny and lucky, you will see a rainbow.

great geysir

Iceland's most famous geyser geyser, which means explosive geyser in Icelandic, has the highest jet height among all geysers and geysers in Iceland, so it has become one of the world-famous geysers.

Among more than 50 geysers around, Strokkur geyser in the middle is the most striking. This geyser erupts every 5 minutes or so, spraying the highest, and usually looks like a bubbling pot. Although it's cold, it's worth watching Blue Bubble. The so-called "blue bubble" refers to the blue bubble with a diameter of more than 10 cm slowly expanding from the geothermal surface spring, just before the spring erupts.

Vic Black Beach

Under the cliff in front of Wake Town is a black beach. It is said that in 199 1 year, Island magazine in the United States listed the black beach in Vic, Iceland as one of the top ten most beautiful beaches in the world.

The "sand" of the black beach comes from volcanic lava. After years of scouring and sea wave carving, black basalt turned into black sandstone. There are many black beaches in Iceland, but the most beautiful one belongs to Vic Town. The columnar joints on the shore have become the photo spots for tourists to climb the concave.

Diamond beach

Diamond black beach is not far from glacial lake. If you pass by glacial lake, you can walk 10 minutes or so. It is named "Diamond Black Beach" because there are often ice cubes washed ashore by the waves on the beach here, which are crystal clear under the sunlight, like shining diamonds.

church

Church Hill, also known as Straw Hat Hill, looks like a straw hat from a certain angle, so most relatives in China call it Straw Hat Hill.

It is a landmark of Iceland, one of the holy places for countless photographers and one of the best places to watch the aurora in Iceland. If you catch the beautiful sunrise and sunset, there is no doubt that it will be an unforgettable sight you have ever seen.

These are the winter scenery in Iceland. Are they enough for everyone to like? Iceland is not only beautiful this season. There are other activities, I believe everyone will like them!
