Highland Base Hotel: A Dreamy Retreat in the Icelandic Wilderness
As you embark on a journey through the remote central highlands of Iceland towards the Kerlingarfjöll mountain range, marveling at the surreal landscapes of volcanoes and glaciers, you’ll notice a point where the asphalt road begins to fade away, leading you into a rocky highland terrain. It feels like stepping into an adventure, far removed from earthly life.
In the land of ice and fire, amidst the mist-shrouded Central Highlands National Park, lies the Highland Base Hotel—a dreamy retreat that beckons travelers seeking isolation. Surrounded by untamed wilderness, this cozy wooden lodge offers a warm sanctuary with large windows that mirror the natural beauty outside. In winter, guests can bask in the warmth and enjoy the snow-covered landscapes, while in the clear summer weather, they can witness the mesmerizing patterns of the mountain ranges and vibrant colors of the lively terrain.
Ideal for small groups of minimalist travelers, our triangular cabins feature three single beds. Guests can also access the campsite’s kitchen and shower facilities for a convenient and cozy stay.
Highland Base aspires to coexist harmoniously with nature. All construction procedures and materials are chosen following the guidelines set by BREEAM, aiming to achieve global sustainable architecture and uphold principles that contribute to the well-being of the Earth.
Are you ready for an exhilarating adventure at Kerlingarfjöll? To witness the breathtaking landscapes unseen elsewhere on Earth, reaching this destination is not feasible through public transportation, and tour options are limited. Adventurers, hikers, and holidaymakers eager for a unique experience can opt to rent a car. The rugged terrain may require specific vehicle models to safely navigate gravel and icy roads, adding an element of unknown excitement to the journey.
