Your experience at Myvatn Nature Baths

Step into the soothing embrace of Icelandic nature at Myvatn Nature Baths. These naturally heated geothermal pools offer a tranquil escape nestled in the rugged landscape of northern Iceland. The water, drawn from deep underground, is infused with minerals that are gentle on the skin, providing a warm and calming experience that is both relaxing and rejuvenating.

Geothermal serenity and scenic landscapes

Begin your visit by immersing yourself in two main bathing areas, each featuring crystal-clear geothermal water gently heated by volcanic activity. The baths are perched with panoramic views of Lake Myvatn, surrounded by vast lava fields and scenic mountains, offering a truly unique backdrop as you soak.

As steam rises from the surface, embrace the peaceful atmosphere. Take a moment to simply float and enjoy the mild temperatures while admiring the volcanic landscapes stretching toward the horizon. The air is often filled with the calls of native birdlife, especially during the summer when Lake Myvatn attracts over 100 species, including vibrant tufted ducks and elegant Arctic terns.

Relaxation, wellness and local hospitality
