Your day, stop by stop

2Ride and walk to the canyonA short transfer followed by a guided walk into the highlands.

The baths sit away from the main road, so the visit starts with a short ride from the Húsafell Activity Centre and then an easy guided walk in, rather than driving straight up to the water. Wear hiking clothes and shoes for the walk.

About the Húsafell Canyon Baths

Húsafell Canyon Baths sits in a canyon in the highlands near Húsafell in West Iceland, reached by a short ride from the Húsafell Activity Centre followed by a guided walk. It's a smaller, more natural setup than the big spa-style baths elsewhere in Iceland, with the geothermal water sitting in a canyon rather than a built pool complex.

Once there, you have time to soak in the warm water before walking back out. It suits people who want something a bit more low-key and scenic than a large bathing complex, though that also means fewer facilities on site, so plan accordingly.

This runs with several departures a day rather than being open continuously, so it's worth checking the schedule and booking a specific time rather than just turning up.
