Float Beneath the Brightest Northern Lights in a Decade at Geothermal Sanctuary Laugarás Lagoon

Discover Iceland’s newest winter destination at Laugarás Lagoon, a geothermal sanctuary newly opened on the iconic Golden Circle. Positioned in Laugarás village and easily reachable by car - just over an hour from Reykjavík - guests float across two levels of therapeutic warm waters connected by a dramatic waterfall, soaking beneath nature’s greatest light show.  The timing of Laugarás Lagoon’s opening is exceptional: a rare ‘solar maximum’ (occurring once every 11 years) makes this winter likely to be the most spectacular Northern Lights season until 2037, with peak activity expected to last until March 2026.
