A short drive from Haukadalur Geysir is the Gullfoss mighty Golden Waterfall. This is our second stop in the 9th day (6th June, 2019) of our family free and easy tour of Iceland quote name "The Ring Road of Fire and Ice". The most beautiful waterfall in Iceland and claims to generate more water power than Nigara Fall and largest in Europe, is spectacular and majestic. Just beautiful scene and picturesque from all angles. The Gullfoss fall is from river Hvita tumbllng 32 meters in a double cascade.. great outing and worth the trip....cheers.

For natural lovers this is a good stop for seeing the geothermal activity. It was different unique experience to me as I hadn't seen such a thing before. There's a restaurant and gift shop and toilets on the site which gives a good chance for a good short break.

Our family really enjoyed our week day visit here as part of our driving adventure on a reverse Golden Circle route (as suggested by a popular guidebook) from Reykjavik. While we didn't visit Iceland to pet baby rabbits and watch guinea pigs, we all had so much fun seeing them and the other animals. It made a nice first stop for our four year old to get some energy out and play in the comfortably warm cafe/mini-golf area, while the grown-ups enjoyed snacks at the cluster of tables. If memory serves me correctly, Slakki offered a good waffle with cream and jam and a cheese burger among other snacks. My son even enjoyed the sweet but small toddler play area in the cafe corner before attempting his version of miniature golf. The cute buildings and interesting animals outside (hopefully, they stayed warmer than we were) were worth the small admission and also made us feel as if we were experiencing a more pastoral part of the area outside of the city. We could see local Icelandic families showing the animals to their children, too. I was happy to see an Arctic fox up close and some rams. Outside, my son had fun with the push trucks and toys in between seeing the puppies, ducks, calf, and a few other types of animals. Slakki was approximately an hour and a half drive for us from Reykjavik. Make sure your navigation system is working well to reach it easily. In all, we were very glad to find a stop on the Golden Circle route we could truly enjoy with our son before venturing to the waterfalls and Pingvellir.
