Hotels in North Iceland, Iceland

North Iceland is a dramatic region just below the Arctic Circle, with long, snowy winters and cool, short summers where temps hover around 50°F (10°C). It's world-famous for the Northern Lights visible from September to April near Lake Mývatn, and for whale watching in Húsavík's Skjálfandi Bay from May to September. In winter, you can soak in the Mývatn Nature Baths under the stars, while summer invites hiking through the geothermal hot springs and lava fields around Krafla volcano.
