Myvatn is probably one of Iceland’s most popular tourist destinations. Every year, hundreds of thousands of tourists come to view this incredible natural gem.
What is it that attracts tourists to Myvatn? The lake is very special and it attracts many. Areas near Myvatn have geothermal activity such as Namaskard. The land around Myvatn is still in the making and not long since eruptions were nearby. And there are countless more reasons to visit Myvatn.
What I find incredibly exciting about Myvatn is the lava formations both in the water and around it. Everywhere one sees all kinds of mysterious creatures, animals, elves and trolls.
What do you see in the lava?
