The east's star: Iceland's only certified natural baths, with floating infinity pools that rest on the surface of Lake Urriðavatn near Egilsstaðir. Step from the warm pools straight into the cool lake.

What to expect

Floating geothermal pools, a cold plunge into the lake, steam, and a tea bar drawing on local herbs, sleek, calm and family friendly.

Getting there

A short, scenic drive from Egilsstaðir in east Iceland; easy to reach from Hótel Breiðdalsvík.

Best time to visit

Year round; the quiet east means you often have space to yourself.
