Hiking

The highland base at Kerlingarfjöll is a modern hikers hotel. They offer both hotel rooms and camping spots.

Hiking

If you know how easy it was here a few years ago and you now hear that the investors in the now totally overpriced blue lagoon are also active here and that everything is only in the high-price segment, then you can definitely use the infrastructure despite the beautifully designed rooms also see critically. We had the impression that the simply designed hut at the beginning of the resort will not exist for much longer...

Who decided to discontinue the mountain hut for that resort? It’s a pity, more smaller and basic huts would have been enough… sorry can’t “like” this place…
