🏔️ Nearby Sights

Notable places within about 40 km — shown as straight-line (air) distance, not travel distance

Perlan 0.7 km away (air distance)

Perlan was completed in 1991 on top of tanks that store geothermal hot water for the city's heating system. The site is a nice reminder of how deeply geothermal energy shapes daily life in Iceland, and the museum's exhibits on glaciers, volcanoes and the northern lights explore that story further.

Nauthólsvík Geothermal Beach 1 km away (air distance)

The beach is busiest in summer, but the hot tubs are also used by hardy locals in cooler months, and there is a café on site. Bring a towel and swimsuit, and use the changing rooms. It is easily combined with a walk or cycle along the coastal path or a visit to Perlan, a short distance away.

Hallgrímskirkja 1 km away (air distance)

Rising above the rooftops of central Reykjavík, Hallgrímskirkja is the city's most recognisable building. Its stepped concrete tower is shaped to echo the basalt columns found across Iceland, and the white façade is visible from almost every corner of the capital. Inside, the church is plain and airy, with a huge organ dominating the hall.
