This region lies in the highlands of Iceland and is said to be one of the most beautiful regions in Iceland because of its various volcanoes and the ensuing special colouring of the landscape which underlines the dramatic nature of Iceland. There are natural hot-springs which guests are able to bathe in whilst there.
Landmannalaugar (Icelandic; meaning the people's pools) is a region near the volcano Hekla in the southern section of Iceland's highlands.
The Landmannalaugar area is a popular tourist destination and hiking hub in Iceland's highlands. The area displays a number of unusual geological elements, like the multicolored rhyolite mountains and expansive lava fields, not far from the service center. The many mountains in the surrounding area display a wide spectrum of colors including pink, brown, green, yellow, blue, purple, black, and white. Two of the most popular mountains among hikers are Bláhnúkur (meaning "blue peak") and Brennisteinsalda (meaning "sulphur wave").
One can visit the area from June through late September, after which time the road is closed. A mountain lodge, in operation since 1951, can accommodate 78 people and has basic amenities. It is located centrally near natural geothermal hot springs, also popular with tourists.
