About

Hraunborgir is a family campsite in Grímsnes, in the Golden Circle, about an hour from Reykjavík. It has a swimming pool, hot tubs, a sauna, a restaurant, and a bar, and stays open year-round. Þingvellir, Gullfoss, Geysir, and the Kerið crater are all within easy reach.

Hraunborgir puts you in the Golden Circle proper — Grímsnes, about an hour's drive from Reykjavík — with spacious ground for tents, caravans, and motorhomes. That location does a lot of the work: Þingvellir, Gullfoss, Geysir, and the Kerið crater are all short hops away. On site, families are well served. There's a swimming pool, hot tubs, and a sauna, plus a restaurant, a bar, and a TV lounge for when the weather sends everyone indoors. A playground keeps the younger ones busy. Unlike a lot of Icelandic campsites, Hraunborgir stays open all year, with the service centre keeping longer hours over summer. Electricity and EV charging are both available on site.

Book ahead in summer, especially near popular spots. Campsites fill up by late afternoon.
