Hraunbrún – Hostel
Sleep on the edge of a lava field.
You have probably stayed in hostels all over the world, but you have never stayed in a hostel like this. Hraunbrún – the name of our hostel – means lava edge. Because you basically sleep right on the edge of Mývatn’s lava field.
It’s a no fuss kind of hostel: You just roll out your own sleeping bag (or rent duvet, pillow and linen as a self service option) in one of our 14 rooms equipped with two bunk beds and make yourself at home in the common kitchen and dining room.
Do we need to mention that the view of the lava field is amazing from the dining room?
Bringing the whole gang to Iceland?
Look no further than to one of the family rooms of Hraunbrún that accommodates 4-5 persons on bunk beds – single and small doubles.

Day tours
The Diamond Circle
The Diamond Circle can be described as a magnificent circuit of 250km in the Northeast of Iceland, which includes some of the most stunning sights and spots for unearthly landscapes.
Askja
Askja is an enormous caldera and central volcano in the Dyngjufjöll mountains, north of Vatnajökull glacier. The caldera is a bedrock subsidence located above a massive magma chamber, and is still ‘in the making’.
GeoSea
GeoSea is not only a world-class geothermal bathing mecca — it is an experience that taps into the historical roots of a small fishing town in North Iceland that has harnessed the earth’s geothermal waters for centuries.
Whale watching
Experience the traditional tour from Húsavík. Our birthplace is often considered as the Whale Watching Capital of Europe. It is a unique adventure at sea – watching the wonders of nature in the beautiful surroundings of Skjálfandi Bay, sheltered by the stunning mountains of Vík.
Dettifoss
The Dettifoss waterfall is the most powerful waterfall in Europe, 500 cubic meters of water per second plunge over the edge. Dettifoss is 45 m high and 100m wide. A nice hiking trail, 34km, goes along the canyon from Dettifoss to Asbyrgi. Camping is possible in Vesturdalur.
Ásbyrgi
Ásbyrgi is one of the wonders of nature, a well-forested horse-shoe-shaped canyon in Öxarfjörður. Ásbyrgi is a part of Jökulsárgljúfur canyon, within the Vatnajökull National Park.
Krafla
Krafla is a caldera, part of a greater volcanic system of the same name, located north of Lake Mývatn in North Iceland. It is one of the country’s most explosive volcanoes, having gone off approximately 29 times since the country was first settled.
