Klængshóll Lodge is located 58km from Akureyri in Northern Iceland which is around a 45 minute transfer for guests. Originally an ancient sheep farm that has been continually inhabited since 850AD and now a wonderful lodge for guests to enjoy. The current farm house was built in the late fifties and has the classic traditional Icelandic exterior of white washed walls and a bright red roof.
The old farm house hosts the dining and lounge area where delicious local meals are served, such as organic lamb, fresh fish and game (plenty of vegetarian options available on request). The bar has a good selection of locally brewed beer, spirits and wines too.
Guests stay in two bedroom cabins, sleeping one person in each bedroom on two different floors for optimal privacy and comfort. Each cabin has its own bathroom with shower and mini bar.
With a spa house to enjoy relaxing moments in the sauna or outdoor hot tub overlooking the valley or even a massage from the lodge’s professional therapist, you can be sure you will be taken good care of after a long day of skiing.
The Barn, which used to hold the winters supply of hay, now has been restored to house the ski and boot room, where their ski technicians prepare your skis. It is also where aprés ski snacks and cold drinks are served up at the end of the day. Here you can relax by a wood burning stove in a wonderfully cosy, rustic lounge. The second floor of the barn has an exercise and yoga room too so if you fancy a morning stretch or a few rounds of ping pong at night you are welcome to do so.
Probably one of the most fabulous things about Klængshóll Lodge is that you can ski directly out of the door to the Lodge’s signature run called ‘The Horse’ which gives you over 1200m or 4000ft of vertical descent right back to the front door. Awesome.
