Description
The geothermal area Krysuvík is situated on the Reykjanes peninsula in Iceland, a Nordic island country at the juncture of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans.
It is in the south of Reykjanes on the great divide between Europe and America- fissure zone on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge which traverses Iceland.
Krýsuvík consists of several geothermal fields, such as Seltún. Here solfataras, fumaroles, mud pots and hot springs have formed, the soil is coloured bright yellow, red, and green hues.
Near the geothermal fields are several maars - craters created by the explosions of overheated groundwater.
