The capital of hot springs. Hveragerði and the nearest surrounding is a beautiful place with magnificent landscape.
The town is positioned on an active volcanic zone.
Earthquakes are frequent thanks to the tectonic movements that rumble below. On May 29th 2008, earthquake with a magnitude of 6,2 on the richter scale hit the town and a new geothermal area was created.
