Location & Nearby

Raudaberg II Guesthouse’s location in southeast Iceland makes it fantastic for ring road travelers and those spending multiple days exploring the South Coast. The accommodation is just 19 miles (31 kilometers) from the beautiful coastal town of Hofn, where you can find grocery stores, restaurants, shops, gas stations, and tourist information centers. Some tour operators are also based here, allowing you to enjoy adventures in the surrounding seas and glacial landscapes.

Traveling west from Raudaberg II Guesthouse will take you along the South Coast sightseeing route. The nearest attraction is the Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon, 37 miles (59 kilometers) away. Often nicknamed ‘the crown jewel of Iceland’s nature, this spectacular lake is filled with colorful, enormous icebergs and home to many seals and seabirds. The lagoon sits by two other incredible sites, the Diamond Beach and the slightly smaller Fjallsarlon glacier lagoon.

The Skaftafell Nature Reserve, a stunning corner of the Vatnajokull National Park, is further west. Its glacial tongues, woodlands, rivers, and lava landscapes make it a paradise for nature lovers, and you’ll find plenty of glacier hiking opportunities here. It is 71 miles (115 kilometers) away.

These are the last significant attractions on the South Coast. Many travelers from Reykjavik who stay at the guesthouse will visit them after a day exploring the many other landmarks en route from the capital, namely the waterfalls of Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss, the black sand beach of Reynisfjara, and the rock arch of Dyrholaey. They can then spend the next day taking excursions in the area, visiting the Eastfjords, or continuing their ring road adventure.

The nearest site of the Eastfjords is the jagged mountain of Vestrahorn, just 16 miles (26 kilometers) away. Continuing from here, you can witness features such as the waterfall of Hengifoss, the lake of Lagarfjlot, and the unforgettable coastal villages of Djupivogur and Seydisfjordur. The seascapes and wildlife of this region are bound to impress any traveler.
