Is there anything to see around Silfra?
-
Silfra is located in Thingvellir National Park, one of the main sites of the Golden Circle. It is a stunningly beautiful area, as well as being one of Iceland's most important historical sites. There are many walking trails around the park and close by Silfra, and many of the areas have information signs telling you about the historical & geological aspects of the area around Silfra and Thingvellir.

-
What do I need to wear? Do I need to buy a thermal base layer?
-
It is best to come to Silfra already dressed in your thermal base layer, as there are not many locations to fully change your clothes in private. If you do not have thermals and do not want to purchase any, something soft, close-fitting and warm works just fine. For example, yoga pants, leggings, running tights and a long-sleeved t-shirt or a thin jumper.
