Iceland's Golden Circle: Strokkur Geyser – A Must-See Geyser in the Geyser Basin

🏖️Atmosphere/Facilities: 🍊Strokkur (meaning "churning milk" in Icelandic) is one of Iceland's most famous and active geysers, located in the Haukadalur geothermal area in southwestern Iceland. It is one of the three main attractions on the "Golden Circle" tourist route. Key Features 🍊Frequent Eruptions: Strokkur is known for its predictable eruptions. It typically erupts every 6 to 10 minutes. 🍊Ejection Height: The water column from each eruption usually reaches a height of 15 to 20 meters (approximately 49 to 66 feet), and sometimes even as high as 40 meters (approximately 130 feet). 🍊Location: Located within the Geysir geothermal area, not far from the Great Geysir geyser, which was first discovered by Europeans and named after all the geysers there. 💞Recommended Reasons: 🍊Golden Circle Attraction: Along with Þingvellir National Park and Gullfoss Waterfall, it's considered one of the three must-see attractions in Iceland's Golden Circle. 🙌🙌 🍊Unique Scenery: Before erupting, the geyser forms a blue bubble in the crater, then erupts instantly, creating a spectacular sight that attracts countless tourists to wait and take photos. 🥹😎 🍊Comprehensive Facilities: The geothermal area has a visitor center, parking, shops, and restaurants, and is easily accessible. 🥰👍 🍊Since Geysir is currently dormant for most of the time, Stokgey has become the main attraction in this geothermal area. 📍Address: 8M7X+3PJ, Hafnartún, 806 Selfoss, Iceland Geysir Hot Springs 💰Average cost per person: No entrance fee, only parking fee if you are driving.
