Fly into Akureyri Airport in northern Iceland, where a private lodge representative will meet you for the scenic 90-minute drive through Siglufjörður to the Fljót Valley. Helicopter transfers from Akureyri or Reykjavík can be arranged.
Your experience is custom-tailored by a dedicated experience manager. Coordinate your activities (like heli-skiing or horseback riding) at least 60 days in advance to secure the best guides and equipment sizes.
The lodge is set in a highly remote northern valley, meaning there are no outside shops or restaurants nearby. Travel from Reykjavík requires a domestic flight to Akureyri or a five-hour drive on roads that can close during winter storms.
