マルテインスロイグ
South Iceland
南アイスランドのハウカダルスクォウグルの森、名高いゲイシールのほど近くに深くたたずむマルテインスロイグは、実に本物の静謐な天然温泉体験を提供します。金属製の格子で一部が覆われた、素朴な石積みの浴槽は、喧騒を離れてくつろぐよう誘います。多彩な草花と穏やかな小川に囲まれ、アイスランドの風景の静けさに身を委ねてください。
️ As a rustic, undeveloped spring, visitors should exercise caution, especially regarding water temperature which can vary, and the uneven natural surroundings. There are no facilities or lifeguards.
ゲイシールとストロックルからわずか数分の隠れた石造りの浴槽で、ゴールデンサークルの名所の喧騒を離れて湯に浸かれます。
ストーリー
On the southern edge of Haukadalsskógur forest, a short walk from the world-famous Geysir and Strokkur, a small stone-lined pool sits tucked beside the Kaldilækur stream — easy to walk straight past if you don't know it's there. Barely a metre wide and just over half a metre deep, it holds only three to five people at a time, warmed to a gentle 39–43°C by the same geothermal forces that send Strokkur skyward every few minutes. Unlike its famous neighbors, Marteinslaug asks nothing of its visitors — no ticket, no queue, no viewing platform — just a quiet soak among the forest a few minutes off the Golden Circle's best-known stop.
ご存知ですか？
Marteinslaug should not be confused with nearby Marteinshver, a geothermal feature in the same forest that reaches 80–100°C and is dangerous to enter — Marteinslaug is the separate, cooled bathing pool that's safe for soaking. (Source: guidetoiceland.is)
