The usual loop east of Reykjavík: Þingvellir, where the Almannagjá gorge runs along the edge of the North American plate and Iceland's parliament met in the open from 930; the Geysir field, where Strokkur erupts every few minutes; and Gullfoss, where the Hvítá drops in two steps into a canyon.

Demo day: the drive is a simulated route along the real roads. Photographs from Wikimedia Commons, credited in each caption.
