We continue our path finding not too many people in our way, in the midst of a somewhat wild landscape and on a day that at times the rain and the Sun forming beautiful Rainbow gave appointment. The next stop was the zone of springs in eruption of Geysir, where the Strokkur, the most famous geysers of Iceland which ejects jets of water boiling to 30 meters in height, at five minute intervals. This made his appearance catching us totally by surprise, while we walked between fumaroles of small size and eruptions that spouted minimum water jets. .

Its eruptions are truly every 5 minutes, which met with almost total accuracy. We spent a good time watching it and calculating his spectacular appearances. We continue towards the gold Gulfoss waterfall with some extraordinary waterfalls. It is a waterfall of the River Hvita of 31 meters in height. We walked for a few minutes for the left margin of the Hvita River in the vicinity of the impressive waterfall to make photos of rigor. Outside the tourist triangle of gold we find solitude and peace that we had longed for so much.
