Gyms with a day pass

Visitors to Iceland can train on a day pass at many gyms in the capital area, including World Class branches in Reykjavík, Kópavogur and Hafnarfjörður as well as independent gyms. Because several gyms are attached to public swimming pools, a day pass can sometimes include a swim and the hot tubs as well, which makes a gym visit part of a very Icelandic routine.
