Dettifoss and Selfoss are two waterfalls located closely together, separated only by about one kilometer of easy walking along a cliff top.  From the parking lot it is easy to find the start the trail. Just to the right of bathroom, or the water closet (WC) is the beginning to get to both Dettifoss and Selfoss.  We started by walking to Dettifoss, following all the signs to the falls. It firs...

The real adventure is driving to the start of this track. While driving along the Queen Charlotte Drive, the little town called Linkwater has the access road the Mahau and Keneperu Sounds via the Keneperu Road. Warning: There is no petrol along the Keneperu Road, so if you are running low, I would suggest filling up in Linkwater before driving out. Heading out the Keneperu road, you will follow...

The road climbs up Tanaka Hill, and the descends down towards Canaan Carpark and the trailhead for Harwood Hole.The first half of this trail is flat, easy, and fast. Cruis...

The walk around Te Waikoropupu springs is a very easy, flat walk that anybody can do.As you leave the carpark, you do a little bit of descent down towards the water. You walk along some board walks over a little stream that flows beneath your feet. After winding through some forest, the track comes out right next to the springs.The springs are truly incredible. Even on a rainy, overcast day, it...

Just a part of something to do while in Reykjavik. There is an epic church that stands out strong against the skyline. Inside the church there is an impressive organ inside of the church. Most importantly about the church is the clock tower, and the birds eye view of Reykjavik in 360 degree views. It does cost 8 dollars to climb it, but there was nobody checking tickets when we went. The elevat...
