Fossardalur Guesthouse

At Fossardalur we have offered sleeping bag accommodation with cooking facilities for 30 years and a campsite. We now offer made up rooms, though it's still possible to get sleepingbag accomodation upon request. The guesthouse is originally built 1921 and was the home of our family until 1978. The house is located 1,5 km from the main road (road no. 1) in a hidden valley between beautiful mountains. Great place to enjoy Icelandic nature in a quiet and peaceful environment. Perfect for hikers with endless possibilities and over 20 spectacular waterfalls to explore. The landscape is extraordinary. The valley is surrounded by mountains and offers hikes for any taste: from an easy walk along the river to demanding mountain tours. In the river Fossá (Waterfall-River), which runs throughout the valley, are over 20 waterfalls, each with its own fascinating features and absolutely worth a close look. From the farm runs a 4x4 trail into the valley, located close to the river.
