Laugarvatn Fontana stands on the black-sand shore of Lake Laugarvatn on Iceland's Golden Circle. Its steam rooms are built over natural fissures, so the steam rising through the floor comes straight from the ground beneath.

Почему стоит поехать
The lake is the plunge pool: bathers step from the warm mineral baths into cold water a few metres away. The site also bakes rye bread in the hot sand, a local tradition demonstrated daily.
