Hotel Highland is located in the highland of Iceland, north east of the Mt. Hekla the volcano. Hotel Highland is situated at the edge of the country´s most impressive and active volcanic area. The hotel lies only 1.4 km from the Hrauneyjar Highland Center and 150 km from Reykjavik. The area is teeming with great sites for adventure and is the perfect base for visiting as many of them as time allows. It also has a great location to try out all the activities the region has to offer. Trout and char fishing in this pristine area is world-class and it has still barely been discovered by guests from outside Iceland. Hiking is the main reason for travelers to visit. Hotel Highland knows this and why they choose this stunningly remote yet easily accesible location - once known to be a hideaway for outlaws and full of tales describing hidden people, trolls and other supernatural entities. Hotel Highland is easily reached (almost without exception) by paved road all year round. The vastness and lack of human impact on the surrounding area makes it truly one of the last places in Europe where freedom, natural beauty and solitude are combined in a breathtakingly powerful experience. From Hotel Highland it is only a short distance to many of the most beautiful and popular tourist attractions in the highlands - including Landmannalaugar, Thjorsadalur, Mount Hekla, Sprengisandur, Veidivotn and Fjallabak.
