Haukadalur geothermal area

Haukadalur geothermal area was first mentioned in written sources in 1294, when the local hot springs were activated by earthquake. Earthquakes are known to activate local geysers also in the recent past, including 17 and 21 July 2000 earthquake. Due to geysers the valley has been the prime tourist attraction of Iceland since the 18th century.
