The Iceland Golden Circle refers to a circle of road that loops from Reykjavik through the Icelandic countryside, winding about 300 km (or 190 miles) between the various attractions, making it easy for those who choose to self-drive, as well as tour operators, to navigate between points of interest. Along the way, visitors can also get glimpses of some of the other features of the Icelandic landscape, including the unique moss found on much of the lava-generated landscape.
