Husavik Hostel

Hostel Husavik

Hostelling International

Welcome to our hostel

Hostel Berg is located in Sandi, Aðaldal, surrounded by magnificent nature and a diverse bird life. The hostel is at the edge of Aðaldalshraun, a lava field that is particularly beautiful; it is also covered with low birch and bushes. For those wishing to explore extraordinary natural sites, Berg hostel is the ideal base.

The hostel has a well-equipped kitchen for preparing meals, a common room with TV, Internet access and a garden. The nearest town is Húsavík (20km) so travellers will need to either bring food with them or drive to Húsavík to get supplies.

There are not many parts of the country that have as many gems of nature as the north-east of Iceland. In Húsavík you can go whale watching in Skjálfandi bay, known for its vivid marine life, and nearby are the museum at Grenjaðarstaðir, Laxárvirkjun and Goðafoss waterfall.

Nice, spacious hostel a bit far from everything, but u get there pretty easily if you have a car. Location next to the "Lava horses" (the signs on the crossroad are pretty poor.

Peter war sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit. Das Hostel liegt am Ende einer nicht asphaltierten Strasse, dafür sehr schön und ruhig in der Natur.

Berg was in stunning setting, and the hostel very clean and has a very friendly and helping manager. It just needs at least 1 more toilet. Also the wooden bunk bed in the first room next to office is extremely noisy, stops everyone from sleeping. Regards Gabriele
