Kvíar Lodge is an old farmhouse in the Hornstrandir nature reserve. When people abandoned the area in 1948 with their livestock, arctic foxes became the only remaining land mammals.
Kvíar is the only house for many miles, reachable only by boat.
The beautiful abandoned farm of Kvíar is a cozy but rugged haven for adventurers to enjoy a great atmosphere after a fulfilling day out. Life is simple in Kvíar and you’ll be taken back in time as you enjoy how people lived in the area more than sixty years ago.
Kvíar is a great getaway and the perfect base for spotting arctic foxes, kayaking and hiking in summer and skiing in winter.
