The "Sulfur" Secret: In some areas, the hot water comes directly from geothermal sources and can smell like rotten eggs (sulfur). Don't let that scare you! Simply run the cold tap for a few seconds until the water is ice-cold—that water is 100% pure, odorless, and better than any bottled brand.

Ölverk is one of our favorite places to grab some amazing food, sip a brewsky, and pretend we’re only stopping in for “one quick drink.” 😂🍻

If you’re driving the Ring Road, do yourself a favor and pull into Hveragerði. It’s right off the road, easy to find, and absolutely worth the stop. Good vibes, great beer, awesome food, and the kind of place you end up staying longer than planned.

🇮🇸Celebrating 80 Years of Hveragerði!🇮🇸

​Hveragerði is buzzing with excitement as it marks its 80th anniversary! Founded in 1946, our town has grown from a unique geothermal area into a vibrant community known worldwide as the "Hot Spring Town."
​Beyond its steam and flowers, Hveragerði has always been a town of the arts. For decades, it has served as a sanctuary and inspiration for many of Iceland’s most beloved artists, writers, and creative minds. Our cultural heritage is as deep as our geothermal roots.

​The Icelandic flags are up in all their glory, waving in the breeze to mark this historic day.

​To honor this milestone, we are thrilled to announce a very special visit. President Halla Tómasdóttir and her husband, Björn Skúlason, will be joining us to celebrate this wonderful occasion. Join us as we celebrate eight decades of nature, community, and creativity!
