About this experience

We leave the city at 9am for Reykjadalur — the Steam Valley. The hike in is about 3km of moderate uphill through bubbling mud pots and rising steam. At the river you pick your temperature (the higher upstream, the hotter) and soak as long as you like. Then, still warm from the water, we lead a 45-minute session of conscious connected breathing on the riverbank. Most people describe the combination as the deepest rest they have had in years. We are back in Reykjavík by 4pm. All fitness levels welcome; bring a swimsuit and good shoes.

Soaking in a hot river in the rain and then breathing until the valley spun — extraordinary. Guides were lovely and very competent.

The hike is real but manageable, and the river is exactly as advertised. The breathwork on the bank took the day from great to unforgettable.

Wonderful day, well organised. Wear proper shoes — the trail was muddy. The soak placement advice (further up = hotter) was accurate.
