Golden Circle

Golden Circle (derived from the name of Gullfoss - golden waterfall), is not actually a region, but a tourist route in southern Iceland, covering about 190 mi looping from Reykjavík to Þingvellir National Park, the Gullfoss waterfall, the geothermal area in Haukadalur (which contains the geysers Geysir and Strokku), the Kerið volcanic crater, and the town of Hveragerði.
