Please book your bed in the hut through the blue button located up to the right on this page.

The Norðurfjörður hut owned and operated by Ferðafélag Íslands (The Iceland Touring Association, FÍ) is called Valgeirsstaðir.

It is a restored farmhouse in good condition, just above a beach at the end of the bay. It is electrically heated, has two floors with five bedrooms and a dining room.

The kitchen is fully equipped with an electric stove with an oven, a microwave, all utensils, and running hot and cold water. There are two toilets in the house and a shower.

A good camping ground is by the house and close by is a restored sheep shed that can be used as a meeting room. There is a good charcoal grill outside and the whole area is a great meeting place for groups.

A small supermarket is only a 10 minutes' walking distance away and the renowned outdoor swimming pool at Krossnes.

Interesting, short hikes take you through majestic landscapes to the top of Mts. Tafla, Kálfatindar, Munaðarnesfjall and Krossnesfjall. A longer hike takes you to the Ingólfsfjörður Bay around Mt Strútur. A stroll along the coastline takes you to attractions like Tröllahlaði, Bergið and the Gvendur Seat.
