The excursion to the newly created lava fields of the active volcano in 2021/22 takes place on the Reykjanes Peninsula near Fagradalsfjall in the Geldingadalur valley. This location is safe as it is in the middle of a valley surrounded by hills, only 9 kilometres from the town of Grindavík. Participants have the option of walking the few kilometres into the valley to discover the new lava fields created by recent volcanic activity. In addition, the Krýsuvík geothermal area, known for its fumaroles and boiling muds, is also visited during the excursion.
