Wonderful place!

We loved our stay in a glamping tent here. It was the perfect chill out between hiking the laugavegur and fimmvorduhals trails. The little sauna is great after hiking, the staff were so helpful and the trails in the area are fantastic. Walk the orange trail, the glacier views are amazing!

They will let you know last minute that you need a bus pass in order to get to the stay

Very helpful staff at main hut, good buffet with great lamb soup, pesto and hummus. Area around is beautiful!

2/10 Poor

Have the right vehicle - roads are rough.

Getting there. Be aware that you have the right vehicle and arrangements to get here. We had a AWD vehicle rented from the airport. The first river crossing was precarious. The road got even tougher and some rental cars are not allowed in those roads. The GPS gave 4 more river crossings and we decided it was safer to turn back. Never made it. I wish the accessibility issue was made more obvious.

Perfect stay for a hiking getaway

Excellent stay at the volcano huts from beginning to end. Love the quiet, remote location. We had a glamping tent, which was set up wonderfully, with everything we could need. The beds were very comfortable, and the space heater, chairs and blankets were a great extra touch. It was so convenient to have the showers and washroom nearby, and we enjoyed dinner and the takeout lunch available. Perfect location for great hiking nearby. And loved the exciting bus ride to get there! Would definitely stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

Easiest way to get closer to the majestic nature of Iceland, without packing a tent, sleeping bags or pad. Sure it's glamping (if you don't opt for a tent they have cute little cabins too)... but hey, you're on vacation, right? Great staff, great food, cold showers. :)

8/10 Very good

Everything was clean and good. Only down side was that the private room we booked did not keep the noise out of other rooms or the hallway. This is to be considered as you are paying 100$ for bus tickets on top of the stay to get there and back if you dont have a super jeep to get across the river. Views there are really good tho.

6/10 Good

On plus side, Volcano Huts has beautiful and unique views of mountains/glaciers in Porsmork Valley, including through bedroom window. Guest kitchen also a nice amenity. On down side, two things. The “shared bathroom” did NOT include any showers. The showers are located a five minute walk away in a corrugated shed. Showers did NOT have reliable hot water on two separate occasions (two different times of day). Seems like you should have access to hot shower paying this much…. Second, hiking the red post trail (out to the point after the green post trail) became dangerous at the point of descent back into the valley. Wildflowers cover the trail down completely, it’s easy to lose it, not well signed at that point. They need to do more trail maintenance!!

Glamping was amazing! Beautiful tent, super comfortable bed, and incredible scenery. *Be aware: you cannot drive to this property. You must take the bus. It’s an hour bus ride and they are only scheduled a few times a day*

Traumhafte Landschaft mit gut eingerichteten Wanderwegen. Wer entschleunigen und aktiv die Natur genießen möchte, ist hier richtig! Man hat alles was man braucht und wird nicht mit unnötigen Dingen abgelenkt!:)

Camp pour randonneur,perdu au milieu de nulle part. Attention on ne peut s’y rendre qu’en utilisant des véhicules spéciaux. Trajet assez cher. L’endroit est magique mais le confort est très rudimentaire. Faut aimer ça
