Summary
Description
The Hofn Inn Guesthouse is a small, welcoming choice of accommodation in southeast Iceland, with modern features such as free Wifi and private bathrooms. Ring Road travelers and those heading the Eastfjords from Reykjavik will appreciate its comfort and location.
Location & Nearby
Hofn Inn Guest House is located on the outskirts of Hofn, the largest settlement in southeast Iceland. Within this town, you’ll find grocery stores, tour information centers, gas stations, and other amenities, as well as spectacular coastal views and several museums.
Just over two miles (four kilometers) north is the beautiful gabbro mountain of Vestrahorn. Renowned for its jagged peaks, barren slopes, and dramatic surroundings, hikers and photographers will particularly appreciate the proximity of this feature.
Hofn is a fantastic base between the South Coast, notably Vatnajokull National Park, and the sites of the Eastfjords. As such, it is fantastic for those exploring these regions in-depth and embarking on a Ring Road adventure.
The nearest site of the South Coast is Jokulsarlon, a glacier lagoon famous for the thousands of enormous, vividly blue glaciers that fill its waters. It is 49 miles (79 kilometers) away and a favorite spot for wildlife lovers due to its seals and seabirds. Close to here is Diamond Beach, a black sand shoreline where the ice washes up after escaping the lagoon.
Continuing west from Jokulsarlon, you can reach sites like the Skaftafell Nature Reserve, Fjadrargljufur Canyon, and Reynisjara beach. Skaftafell is a haven for glacier hikers, with several ice caps surrounding it. Meanwhile, Fjadrargljufur’s towering cliffs and abundant flora appear as if it is from a fantasy novel, while Reynisfjara is renowned for its unique geology.
The closest major settlement of the east, Djupivogur, is 64 miles (103 kilometers) away. This town is known for its public works of art, abundant birdlife, coastal views, and environmentally conscious way of life. From here, you can head to attractions such as the country’s largest forest of Hallormstadaskogar, its tallest free-standing mountain, Snaefell, and the third-tallest waterfall, Hengifoss.
You can also embark on the incredible coastal routes of the Eastfjords with ease.
