Watch As Strokkur Geyser In Iceland Erupts

Strokkur (Icelandic for "churn") is one of the most famous hot springs in Iceland and belongs to the famous Golden Circle. It is a fountain geyser in the Geyser geothermal area in the southwest part of the country, east of Reykjavik. Strokkur is a powerful hot spring and an impressive sight. It erupts about every 4–8 minutes and <a href="https://rumble.com/v4nkgx-thar-she-blows.html" target="_blank">spouts water</a> to a height of 15 - 20 m, sometimes up to 40 m.

“When we started our Golden Circle tour, we had no idea that Strokkur was an erupting geyser. We heard that the most famous one – Geyser stopped erupting after an earthquake, but when we came there we were caught totally off guard. This video is taken at the third eruption we witnessed, when we knew which side to stay on, since some of the people got drenched in the foul smelling vapors of the geyser. Nonetheless, it was an amazing experience!" - say some of the bystanders.

<a href="https://rumble.com/v34i2q--relaxing-3-hour-video-of-geyser-at-yellowstone.html" target="_blank">The geyser</a> is a bit of a teaser, sometimes spurting a small one, then a few minutes later a huge one. The area gets usually quite busy but here we can see that there are plenty of space for people to spread out and watch the eruptions. You won't get tired of watching this particularly active geyser. With free entry, unobtrusive safety barriers and plenty of space to watch, every eruption is spectacular and gets a great reaction from the crowd. If you don't want to get soaked, make sure you stand upwind of the geyser. You may feel less than impressed, if you happen to stand downwind because you will get completely soaked from the water.
