Modern geothermal spa with five warm pools, fed by Europe's hottest spring in typically Icelandic nature.

What you can experience here

Krauma is a modern geothermal spa in western Iceland, about 1.5 hours north-west of Reykjavík. The complex uses hot water directly from Deildartunguhver, Europe's most powerful hot spring with a temperature of around 100°C. This is mixed with cold spring water from the Ok region to reach the ideal bathing temperature. Five warm pools with different temperatures, a cold plunge pool and two steam baths are available. The relaxation room with fireplace offers additional space to unwind. The surroundings are shaped by lava fields, steaming springs and typically Icelandic nature.

Krauma is close to Reykholt and easy to reach with a hire car. Car parks are located right next to the complex. The facilities are modern and clean, and changing rooms with showers are available. Booking is recommended, especially during the high season, as the complex is very popular at peak times. It tends to be quieter in the morning or around 7pm. This spot is ideal for a relaxing stopover on a round trip through western Iceland or as a destination after active days in the region. An on-site restaurant completes the offer with local ingredients.
