Now you know where to find me!😊
You better say it to your family/significant other. This might actually happen and you know it 😉
We are so excited to welcome you back to West Rangá this summer, the lodge is starting to get a different charm and it is looking great.😄
Our goal is to offer one of the very best fishing lodges in Iceland, and we believe we are getting closer and closer.
See you soon 🐟
Have you ever seen the northern lights? We can see them pretty often here in Iceland.
The aurora borealis season is from mid-September to mid-April. You need to check the weather forecast, make sure the sky isn't cloudy, and find a spot far away from the light pollution.
Then, as in fishing, patience plays a significant role. And sometimes, it pays off!
Who knows which salmon river this is?
Caves of Hella are located within walking distance from West Rangá Lodge. 🚶♀️🚶
We were invited for a visit, and we can definitely recommend it as a fun activity to do while you´re staying at West Rangá for your fishing vacation🙂
Four of the twelve man-made caves discovered on the land of Ægissíða by Hella are open to the public. They are Iceland's oldest still standing archaeological remains. Some believe the caves to date even further back than the settlement of the Nordic Vikings.😲
You can also taste local whisky and beer during your visit 🥃🍺
What a feeling to hold a 10 -pound salmon!
Come fishing with Stefán and other experienced Icelandic anglers, we guarantee it will be unforgettable ☀🐟

However long that last cast can take... 😉🐟
Fortunately, when we cannot fish in the winter, we can still enjoy Iceland´s beautiful landscape.
January days are short, the sun rises around 11 AM and sets around 5 PM, which gives us 5 hours of daylight.
However, there´s hardly a better view than an erupting geyser in the winter sun.
How about trout fishing on West Rangá?
Above Arbaejarfoss waterfall, there is a beautiful trout beat holding big old trout.
