description Litli Strokkur Overview
Litli Strokkur is a small geyser in Iceland's Haukadalur geothermal area. Its Icelandic name means Little Churn and distinguishes it from Strokkur, the larger and active geyser that is the principal eruptive feature commonly associated with the valley. Litli Strokkur is described as dormant, so it is mainly of interest as part of Haukadalur's group of geothermal vents and eruptive features rather than as a regularly spouting attraction.
