North Iceland: Tröllaskagi Peninsula & The Arctic Coast
Wildlife lovers: North Iceland is calling for you. The Tröllaskagi Peninsula (often called the ‘Troll’ peninsula) is known to be the adventure capital of Iceland. Rarely chosen by the typical Icelandic tourists, this region offers unspoiled territory for horseback riding, heli-skiing, e-biking, hiking and whale watching along the Arctic Coast. Plus, being the most fertile land in Iceland, it’s home to more horses than anywhere else on the island. Consider Tröllaskagi horse lover’s paradise.
Where to Stay in Tröllaskagi
In the North, ‘What to Do’ and ‘Where to Stay’ can be easily tied together. Many of the best hotels of the North offer a wide variety of activities, tours and companies they work with to make your North Iceland adventure as exciting and memorable as possible.
For instance, luxury honeymooners looking for the most exclusive accommodations can book a stay at Deplar Farm. Hidden in a valley between glacial-peaked mountains, this hotel is an architectural wonder, paying homage to Icelandic design while featuring the most modern and luxurious of digs.
