Icelandic bathing in Husafell Canyon
The newly opened Husafell Canyon Baths is located in 'remote and spectacular nature' in the Icelandic highlands, two hours from Reykjavik.
For over a thousand years Icelanders have visited the healing hot springs in West Iceland for relaxation and geothermal rejuvenation.
Sustainably built in the traditional stone-bath style, soaking options include three geothermal pools 30-41°C (86-105°F) and an icy glacial stream 10°C (50°F).
The remote nature baths are accessed on a new day-tour offered from Husafell which includes a short hike through landscapes with sites like Iceland's now extinct Okjokull glacier and Langifoss, a waterfall not found in any guidebooks or geo-tagged on Instagram.
Open year round, Husafell Canyon Baths will appeal to wellness visitors and nature lovers seeking a refreshing Icelandic spa experience in a spectacular, off-the-grid landscape.
Husafell Canyon Baths is part of the greater Husafell recreational area in West Iceland which includes 25,000 acres of nature reserve, 10 marked hiking trails, geothermal swimming pools, a 9-hole GEO certified golf course, the world's largest lava cave and ice cave adventures on Langjokull glacier.
