盖锡尔与斯特罗柯间歇泉
Also known as Geysir
Geysir (), sometimes known as The Great Geysir, is a geyser in south-western Iceland, that geological studies suggest started forming about 1150 CE. The English word geyser (a periodically spouting hot spring) derives from Geysir. The name Geysir itself is derived from the Icelandic verb geysa ("to go quickly forward"). Geysir lies in the Haukadalur valley on the slopes of Laugarfjall lava dome, which is also the home to Strokkur geyser about to the south. The Strokkur geyser may be confused with it, and the geothermal field it is in is known usually as either Geysir or Haukadalur.

盖锡尔与斯特罗柯间歇泉（Geysir），通稱盖锡尔间歇泉，又稱為大盖锡間歇泉，尔位于冰岛首都雷克雅未克附近赫伊卡達勒（Haukadalur）谷地周围。整个地区是一个大喷泉区，约有50个间歇泉，最大的间歇泉也稱為大盖锡間歇泉。盖锡尔间歇泉最为有名，其最高喷水高度居冰岛所有喷泉和间歇泉之首，因此也成为世界著名的间歇泉之一，該地也是史托克间歇泉所在之地，約50公尺（160英尺）南邊就能到達。是世界歷史上首個被紀錄的间歇泉，也是歐洲人首個發現的间歇泉。英語「geyser」一詞由該地的地名而來。盖锡尔間歇泉會將沸騰的水噴發至空中70米（230英尺），但有時噴發頻率會變得不頻發，有紀錄顯示盖锡尔間歇泉完全停止活動長達一年。
