The Lagoon

Laugarás Lagoon has a two-level lagoon designed around the idea of harmony between people and their surroundings. Whether it is a quiet moment with loved ones or time with friends, Laugarás Lagoon is the perfect retreat from the bustle of everyday life – in the embrace of nature.

  • A powerful waterfall

    Laugarás Lagoon boasts a waterfall – the first of its kind among Iceland's lagoons. Almost seven metres wide, it falls powerfully, letting guests enjoy its beauty while being reminded that water is an integral part of Iceland's dramatic nature.

  • A quiet cave

    In our cave you will find a cosy shelter, comfortable seating and an experience like no other.

  • The saunas

    After time in the lagoon, step into the warmth of our dry sauna or steam bath at the edge of the woods. Here the warmth meets sweeping views over the banks of the Hvítá river and the surrounding landscape, offering a quiet moment to slow down.

    Next to the saunas is the cold pool, which completes the effect of the heat and resets body and senses.
