Whether you visit under the midnight sun or the dancing Northern Lights, each moment here is unforgettable.
This is not your average hot spring – this is Icelandic wellness reimagined. Don’t miss out on the magic. Book your Forest Lagoon experience today and let nature do the rest.

Enhance your experience in the Finnish-style dry sauna, where temperatures reach around 80°C with low humidity. From here, enjoy panoramic views of Eyjafjörður and the surrounding mountains. For the ultimate refresh, step into the nearby cold pool, cooled to 11°C (51.8°F), and discover the invigorating benefits of hot and cold contrast bathing.
