休息一晚上后,就迫不及待地想要开始冰岛之行了。早餐在酒店享用,centerhotels的自助早餐特别丰盛,每天从7点开始10点结束,都是包含在房费里的。一般在北欧,大多数酒店都是冷早餐,火腿芝士夹面包之类的。咱们中国胃可不乐意了。但是centerhotels的早餐非常丰盛,有热的,培根,番茄焗豆,炒蛋,烤香肠。牛奶,果汁,咖啡,茶,燕麦粥,各种面包,麦片,饼干,新鲜水果,番茄黄瓜,等等等等,吃得非常好。

在之前预定好的巴士站等待巴士来接,可以稍微提早五分钟过去等。如果天气不好,担心团取消等等,可以请前台帮忙打电话给旅游公司询问。

今天开始著名经典的黄金圈之旅。行程大概八小时,全程在户外,所以要注意保暖,带好水,带点补充能量的小零食,手机充好电,准备好一些音乐和耳机,有很长时间会在大巴中度过。相机充满电。主要有三个景点:辛格维利尔(Thingvellir)国家公园,黄金大瀑布(gullfoss),盖歇尔间歇喷泉(geysir)。

从市区出发,大概45分钟后,到达辛格维利尔(Thingvellir)国家公园。历史上这是冰岛议会发源地。最早公园930年,散落在冰岛各地的部落族人们克服重重困难,从冰岛各个地方聚集到这里,成立了冰岛第一个议会。在公园里您可以看到还原的过去的情景照片,有几百个帐篷在这个公园里扎营,商讨国家大事。在公园里看到的几个白色连排房子是曾经的议会遗址。从地理上,这里有冰岛最大的淡水湖Thingvallavatn。最主要这里还是地球两大板块交界处,您会看到一个超大裂缝,还可以在裂缝中间行走。这里正是北美板块和美洲板块交界处。地球最美的疤痕在这里。著名的电视剧:权力的游戏(games of Thrones)曾在这里取景。悬崖被厚厚的绿色苔藓覆盖,形成独特的风景。旅行团会在公园停留一段时间,足够可以在公园里稍微走走了。再出发去下一站之前,最好在公园的洗手间里上个厕所,因为下一站到达黄金瀑布或者间歇泉需要一个小时。

第二站是黄金瀑布Gullfoss,瀑布的水来自朗格冰川,天气好的话可以在黄金瀑布那边看到朗格冰川,Langjokull。Lang朗格是指长的意思,朗格冰川是冰岛最长的冰川。瀑布水流很大,气势磅礴。风比较大,戴好帽子,注意安全。午餐可以在黄金瀑布的咖啡厅用餐。里面有著名的冰岛羊肉汤(不过在很多餐厅也有的),可以品尝下。不饿的话,可以去下一站间歇泉的咖啡厅用餐。间歇泉有好几个餐厅,选择比较多。

盖歇尔间歇喷泉Geysir和黄金瀑布很近,只有15分钟车程。老远就能看到冒白烟,仙气飘飘。喷泉区域有很多泉眼,有些已经不喷了,但不要用手去摸,很烫,80°以上。会喷的只有一个,每隔几分钟就会喷一次,有时候喷的高,有时候喷的低。要注意安全,观察风向,不然水珠会飘到身上弄湿。

回程的路上有些团会去温室大棚转转,冰岛地热资源丰富,发电供暖,低价环保。由于冰岛特殊的地理位置气候土壤环境,很难自然种植粮食蔬菜。冰岛人只能利用地热资源,在温室里人工培养蔬菜了。我觉得也很有意思,可以去参观下。品尝下新鲜的番茄汤。

基本黄金圈的行程差不多结束了可以回城了,从间歇泉出发回城大概2小时车程,可以在车里听听歌小睡一会儿。 以上是经典的黄金圈行程。近年来有些新开发的旅游项目,比如Laugavatn Fantana温泉,secret lagoon秘境温泉,朗格冰川snowmobile雪地摩托,皮划艇激流勇进漂流,国家公园浮潜,都在黄金圈以内,所以报团的时候有多种选择,可以加进这些项目,当然费用也就更贵一些,整个行程更花时间,但基本能在一天12小时左右完成。可以询问centerhotel酒店前台工作人员帮忙选择团。

晚餐,可以在市区享用。
