Why Visit Krauma Spa
Krauma Spa is built around Europe’s most powerful hot spring, Deildartunguhver. The water from the spring comes out at 100°C and is mixed with cold glacial water from the nearby Rauðsgil stream to create the perfect bathing temperature. The result is a modern yet natural spa experience, where visitors can enjoy the geothermal power of Iceland in a beautifully designed setting. The surrounding countryside and valley views add to the peaceful and authentic atmosphere.
