Admission to the Highland Baths at the Kerlingarfjoll Nature Reserve

Book admission to the Highland Baths in the spectacular region of Kerlingafjoll for a fantastic natural hot spring experience. Travelers eager for an affordable and once-in-a-lifetime geothermal bathing experience in the heart of Iceland’s Highlands should grab their spot now.

This opportunity is available at the Highland Base in the Kerlingarfjoll Nature Reserve. This spectacular location is in the heart of the Highlands, between several spectacular glaciers, surrounded by dramatic volcanic mountains and geothermal landscapes.

The Highland Baths, locally known as Halendisbodin, are located 116 miles (187 kilometers) from Reykjavik, making them easy to drive to throughout the summer. En route, you can visit the attractions of the Golden Circle, West Iceland, or other Highland locations, allowing the geothermal springs to be part of a more extensive day out sightseeing.

Once you have arrived, you’ll find comfortable changing facilities with secure lockers. Remember your swimsuit and towel, as you cannot rent them on-site. Once you are showered and dressed, you are welcome to use the incredible facilities.

The geothermally heated pools are surrounded by beautiful nature, allowing you to enjoy the dramatic Highland landscapes as you bathe in the hot springs. Though the baths are only open during summer, you may still see snow on the surrounding peaks during the early season.

If you arrive later in the evening at the Highland Baths, you can enjoy their time under the midnight sun, which never fully sets throughout June, July, and early August. 

Those looking for a revitalizing experience can jump between the warm water and the cold dip. If you’d prefer to maximize the relaxation element of your stay, the Highland Baths also have a sauna and a bar where you can enjoy various refreshments.

Facilities such as these make the Highland Baths particularly appealing to traveling couples and groups of friends.

Unlike many natural hot springs in Iceland, the Highland Baths replenish their waters approximately every two hours, guaranteeing a hygienic and refreshing experience. Furthermore, the water flowing through the springs is renowned for its healing qualities. It has no chlorine and a low pH level, which stops irritation and provides many therapeutic benefits.

After a beautiful geothermal bathing experience in the Highlands, you can get dressed and continue your adventures. However, a renowned restaurant is on-site should you have worked up an appetite.
