Unique experiences create unique memories

At the Forest Lagoon we believe that to create unique experiences every detail matters. With views overlooking one of Iceland's longest fjords, Eyjafjörður, the spa's unique location surrounded by birch and pine trees truly sets it apart. During the visit to the Forest Lagoon guests will experience the view, the tranquility and the energy of Vaðlaskógur, the forest that surrounds the baths.

Pools

There are two pools at the Forest Lagoon. The large pool is 530m2 and the temperature is kept around 37°C (98.6F), it has two swim-up bars and an indoor entry. The small pool is 53m2 and the temperature is kept around 40°C (104F).

Cold pool

Next to the dry sauna we have a cold pool and we highly recommend our guests to enjoy the health benefits combining those two can bring. The temperature of the cold pool is 11°C (51.8F).

Finnish Dry Sauna

Our sauna harnesses the power of dry heat. Unlike steam rooms, also known as wet saunas, moisture and steam play no part in a Finnish dry sauna. The humidity is kept around 20% and the temperature is around 80°C. At our sauna, along with enjoying all the health benefits dry sauna brings, you will also experience a unique view over Eyjafjörður and the mountains surrounding it. Just remember to wear your swimsuits in there.

Forest Bistro

An important part of the experience at the Forest Lagoon is dining at Forest Bistro. If you are a person that likes to enjoy quality food in an exotic environment, the wood-cladded bistro area is something you will not want to miss. With the view over Eyjafjörður, the indoor fireplace the bistro has everything you need to top off the Forest Lagoon experience.
