Eclipse Afterglow: Troll Peninsula Drive & Soak

Explore Iceland’s northern edge, then unwind in warm geothermal waters as the sky settles into the quiet afterglow of a rare eclipse.
Set off from Siglufjörður on a scenic drive along the Troll Peninsula, passing through Ólafsfjörður and over a mountain pass. Stop at Reykjafoss waterfall, the glassy Stíflan reservoir, a local farm shop, and historic fishing huts by the sea. Then, ease into a geothermal soak, floating beneath wide Arctic skies. In the calm after the eclipse, this pairing of movement and stillness offers space to reflect on the shifting rhythms above.
