Unexpectedly Healing Iceland in the Summer

If you've only seen the Northern Lights in winter, you definitely haven't seen how healing Iceland can be in the summer. This summer in Iceland is all about the greenery and flowing light at the end of the world. The glaciers are still there, and the volcanoes are still active, but the mountains are no longer closed off, the roads are no longer snowy, and even the sky has become clear and transparent. You think it's cold, but it actually has so many vibrant colors, just waiting to slowly unfold in the summer. - These are the places you must visit in Iceland in the summer: Landmannalaugar The legendary place in the highlands. Colorful rhyolite, geothermal rivers, and snow-capped mountains coexist, making it a hiking paradise open only in summer. Take a walk along the Laugavegur Trail in July, and you'll discover that there really is an alien landscape on earth. Vik: Black Sand Beach and Lupin Flower Sea In the height of summer, lupins bloom in large areas, and the purple tide spreads to the end of the beach. In Vik, you can watch the waves come and go in the sea of flowers, everything is just right. Jökulsarlon: Glacier Lagoon Icebergs slide from the Vatnajökull glacier and float in the lagoon. The light here is especially magical in summer, especially when the midnight sun dyes the lake into a golden-blue wonderland. Sigöldugljufur: Sigöldugljúfur Canyon "Iceland's most beautiful canyon", the moss-covered valley hides countless tiny waterfalls, like the earth secretly shedding tears. The amount of water is just right in summer, making it a dream scene treasured by hiking enthusiasts. Þorsmörk: Thorsmork Valley A secret valley surrounded by three glaciers, so green it looks like an animation scene. It is suitable for camping and hiking. When the fog has not cleared in the early morning, the entire valley seems to be suspended outside of time. - 🕐Summer time: Early June to the end of August 🌞Longest daylight hours: Experience the "midnight sun" around June 21 🌸Lupin flowering period: Approximately mid-June to early July, concentrated on the South Coast, Golden Circle, and Snaefellsnes Peninsula - 🚗Tips 1️⃣The highlands such as Landmannalaugar are only open in summer, and you need a 4-wheel drive vehicle or a tour group 2️⃣Although it is warm in summer, the temperature difference between day and night is large, so it is recommended to bring a windproof and warm jacket 3️⃣There are many hiking routes, so please plan ahead and bring mosquito repellent spray, waterproof shoes, and a thermos
