Osar Hostel

Osar Hostel is on the Vatnsnes Peninsula, about 25 km north of Route 1. The hostel has been renovated and is close to a coastline known for seals and birdlife. Visit North Iceland lists an opening period from May 1 to October 1.

Hostels often suit travellers looking for simpler accommodation and shared facilities. Rules, opening periods and services vary by property and season, so check current information before arrival.
