About this experience
There is no experience more authentically Icelandic than hiking through the surreal landscapes of the highlands followed by a relaxing soak in a geothermal pool.
The Húsafell locals who undertook the Canyon Baths project went to great lengths to keep the entire structure as environmentally unobtrusive, sustainable and true to the area’s heritage as possible.

If the weather cancels this tour
Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is closed F-roads or a highland storm — decided by the Road Administration and the driver. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.
- 1Husafell Canyon Bath decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
- 2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
- 3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.
What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until 1 day before departure, the operator's policy after that.

Sold out on your date?
Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.
Who this is not for
- Not available in winter; the operator runs it roughly May to September.
Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

Very basic place. Hard to get standard amenities like robe and slippers. Restaurant very mediocre and here’s an anecdote that encapsulates our review: When I asked for and extra little dish of ketchup, they had the gall to charge me 350 Icelandic krona!!

What an incredible stay! I was traveling with my grandmother and they went above and beyond to provide exceptional service. We saw the auroa borealis and had an incredible meal. Having hot baths on site is so so nice. The service is so great here and it is the people that make it special. THANK YOU!

This was our second time staying at Hótel Húsafell. Both times have been amazing. The staff is all very friendly. The restaurant meals were delicious. The room and hotel is comfortable and cozy. The hotel can coordinate several great excursions. We did the lava cave tour and the cannon baths; both were great. They provide a Northern Lights wake-up call, which helped us catch the lights.

A supposed four star hotel that provides a flask of coffee at breakfast and cheap instant coffee in the rooms. I mean, wow - at these prices! I witnessed a breakfast guest asking for an americano and being shocked when told that it would be an extra cost. The staff helped themselves to a cappuccino though, so they're happy. I've stayed at plenty of three star hotels in Iceland that have Nespresso machines in guest rooms and bean-to-cup machines at breakfast - and they were much cheaper to stay at. Also, the music is simply TOO LOUD in the breakfast/dinner venue: I like Billy Joel as much as the next guy, but do I want Piano Man (a feisty number) being belted out whwn trying to speak to my companion over a chilled breakfast?! I do not. Spa pools were quite dirty (lots of dead insects floating) and oddly painted blue (which they hadn't kept up, so it was all cracked).

Read before you book
- Húsafell: what to book when you stay thereStay a night in Húsafell and book two things: Into the Glacier in the morning and the Canyon Baths in the late afternoon. Snowmobiles and quads are optional.
- Sightseeing flight in Iceland: plane or helicopter?A small plane costs about half as much per minute as a helicopter and covers more ground. Pay for the helicopter only when you want the landing.
