Location

Reykholt, Iceland, the untouched serene quality of this remote exotic location, set amongst the hills, waterfalls, caves, hot springs, glaciers, breath taking walks, the changing shapes and colours of the clouds… from deep pink to purple. Only the silence of the valley to resonate with the silence within, the self, the yogi at rest…….The air quality is pure, the views awe inspiring, the long rainbows, and the ever so charming and rare aurora, the word itself connecting to the aura and feel of this sensitive and intuitive hidden land of nature in Iceland, a place yet to be fully explored and experienced.




Reykholt was home of Snorri Sturluson, Iceland’s greatest Saga writer, poet and historian. Today, Reykholt is still one of Iceland’s main spiritual, historical and cultural sites. Here you will find two beautiful churches, Snorri’s natural hot pool, Snorralaug, Heimskringla and Snorrastofa, an exhibit of Snorri’s writings and a research centre for medieval studies. In the park is a statue of Snorri by the Norwegian sculptor Gustav Vigeland. Archaeological excavations are carried out on site by the National Museum of Iceland.

Just a few minutes drive from Reykholt are the waterfalls Hraunfossar and Barnafoss, Europe's most powerful hot spring, Deildatunguhver, and several lava tubes and caves. Snow mobile tours are available on the glacier Langjökull. Reykholt is located in the area called Borgarfjörður in West Iceland, less then 90 minutes drive from Reykjavík.
