#iceland travel # Iceland trip reviewsTim BoughtonNot only are warm clothes (multiple layers) necessary, but take waterproof clothing, that includes a hood. Also, waterproof pants that can go over normal pants are a good idea to keep in a backpack, e.g for glacier walk. At a glanceBest time to visit IcelandTop PicksTop 5 Natural Phenomena of Iceland1. Northern LightsThe Northern Hemisphere s Aurora Borealis has captivated and intrigued people for eons. This stunning, natural light display that runs along magnetic fields brings hypnotic green, yellow and red shades to the night sky in Iceland from September to March. As one of nature s most magnificent triumphs, this is one unforgettable spectacle. 2. Golden FallsKnown locally as Gullfoss, this spectacular, three-tiered waterfall drops suddenly into a deep cavern, creating a dramatic landscape like no other. Surrounded by lush, green countryside, the mist and spray create rainbows in the air providing brilliant photo opportunities. 3. Blue LagoonThe mineral-rich, azure waters of the Blue Lagoon are a magnificent sight to behold and are even better to soak in. Relaxing in the warm waters while admiring the sublime moonscape is a quintessential Iceland experience that just must be done. 4. Lake MyvatnThis awesome area in northern Iceland was birthed from volcanic eruptions millions of years ago and continues to be shaped by volcanic activity to this day. The combination of strange lava formations, thermal caves and a sprawling lake dotted with craters and rising rocks makes for an eerie yet beautiful landscape. 5. Glacier LagoonAlso known as Jokulsarlon, this monumental glacier lake is the largest in Iceland. Featuring a parade of large and small blue icebergs floating on and under the pure, icy water, this lagoon is so exceptionally beautiful that it has been used as a backdrop for Hollywood films, a set for reality television shows and has even featured on a postage stamp.
