The geothermal area Krýsuvík is situated on the Reykjanes peninsula in Iceland. It is in the south of Reykjanes close to Keflavik Airport and the famous Blue Lagoon.
Krýsuvík consists of several geothermal fields, such as Seltún. Here solfataras, fumaroles, mud pots and hot springs have been formed, the soil is coloured in various colours like bright yellow, red, and green hues. Sulphur deposits were mined in the middle ages and in the 19th century. German scientist Robert Bunsen visited the site in 1845 and, based on research there, proposed a hypothesis on formation of sulphuric acid in nature.
