An infinity pool between the rocks, overlooking the Atlantic, in front of the volcano currently erupting on the Reykjanes peninsula and – with a little luck – under a sky animated by the dances of thenorthern Lights: here is the most spectacular point of Sky Lagoon, the new geothermal artificial lagoon just inaugurated in Iceland, in the port of Kársnes, in Kópavogur, very close to the center of the capital ReykjavÃk.
It is the new place to be on the island for relax deeply living his own from a privileged perspective wild nature of which Sky Lagoon recalls the essence also in thearchitecture. On the outside it has the appearance of the typical ones Turf farms, houses covered with peat as the Vikings did to protect themselves from the cold, and inside it has a style modern and minimal very intimate that recalls all the colors of its dense woods that stand out on those of its precious waters, thanks to which you can try a all Icelandic refreshment route.
Pursuit, the company that built and opened the structure, called it “The Ritual»: a rituale in sette step which, following the tradition of the country, combines the healing powers of hot and cold waters, hot steam, dry heat and fresh air. “A rejuvenating and transformative experience“, second Dagny Petursdottir, General Manager, Sky Lagoon.
Each step corresponds to a space, starting right from the infinity pool on the ocean, where you can dive as soon as you enter to learn to “slow down” while admiring the silence and the beauty of the landscape, and then also at the end of the path to “relax deeply”. Second step is a dip in another frozen pool or a walk outdoors (below zero) to stimulate the immune system, then continue with a stop in the panoramic sauna to detoxify, with a cold sensory shower, a thermal scrub and a Turkish bath. As soon as it’s finished, all that remains is to rest, or maybe stop and eat: a gourmet bistro will also open in the Sky Lagoon next autumn. In the gallery above some photos
