The hotel offers a spa where guests can enjoy a hot tub and massages. These facilities are designed to provide ultimate relaxation after a day full of adventure in the Icelandic nature.

Skálakot Manor is not only a place to relax, but also the perfect base for unforgettable adventures in Icelandic nature. One of the absolute highlights are the spectacular horseback riding tours that start directly from the farm. Accompanied by experienced guides, you ride sturdy Icelandic horses along vast black sand beaches, through green valleys, and to iconic waterfalls such as Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss. These tours are suitable for both beginners and advanced riders, and are tailored entirely to your level and wishes.

For those who prefer to admire the landscape from the air, impressive helicopter flights are available. Glide over glaciers, volcanoes, and endless lava fields, landing in places that would otherwise be inaccessible. An extraordinary experience is also visiting ice caves – crystal-clear, blue cathedrals of ice hidden deep beneath the glaciers.

Additionally, there are plenty of opportunities to hike to nearby natural wonders, take a day trip to the charming coastal town of Vík, or learn more about local history at the Skógar Folk Museum. Fishing enthusiasts can try their luck in the nearby Rimhúsaáll River.

The welcoming team at Skálakot is happy to help you customize a personal program and book excursions, so you can make the most of your stay in South Iceland.

Skálakot Manor places great importance on sustainability and uses renewable energy sources, including its own hydropower plant powered by a river on the property. This supplies the hotel with electricity and heats the water, reducing the ecological footprint.
