Hunting hot springs in Autumn would have been great – but left them in Iceland. In Sweden it is getting colder now, and there is no more bathing in the sea…so, back to Iceland memories!
We had read about a very little hot pool, hidden in Landbrotalaug not far from the volcano Eldborg on the south coast of the Snaefellsnes peninsula. We decided to go for it.
The weather was splendid and the beautiful white cottongrass grew here abundantly…
Just when we thought we were lost, the hot water tap finally revealed the place.
With Snaefellsnes in the fond, we spotted the little pool – right out in the wild landscape. Two tents and a couple of people were there already. The bath can only take 1-2 persons at a time, so, Patience – and you will be greatly rewarded!
Wish I were there again!




It must have been magic to cast your eye over the white cotton grass .. 🙂
I find it hard to stop enjoying it – I would have loved to lie down and let it sweep over my face. Unfortunately they grow in wetlands…but looking at all those white brushes in the wind – is magical!
What a beautiful place
We were so lucky that week – Iceland really is not like that…
I can see why you wish you were there again. Just lovely Ann Christine 🙂
♥ Thank you so much! Glad it shows!
What an amazing spot! The cottongrass is simply glorious. Love your opening shot! 🙂 🙂
Jo, that cottongrass ♥ They only grow in those masses in colder climate – love them!
I’m excited to see photos of the cottongrass again. Love those!
So glad you do too,Liz! I find them almost otherworldly beautiful.
They really look like cotton and I can ”see” the wind. 🙂

Janet – I agree, the wind is there!
The flowers in amongst the grasses are beautiful.

So beautiful Ann-Christine!!!
Thank you kindly, Paulo!
Beautiful!
Thank you so much – we were extremely lucky with the weather.
It sounds (and looks) like quite the experience. Gorgeous photos!
There is nothing like dipping down in hot pools in the middle of nature! You feel one with Nature! I didn’t show a close-up here though…
I’m loving my vicarious trip to Iceland. Keep the photos coming!
Glad you do – and they will!
that cotton grass is truly splendid
and on to the cold season eh?
It is – and onto the cold!
