Klængshóll lodge or Raven Hill lodge as it would translate to English used to be a sheep farm. Located deep in Skíðadalur valley in the heart of the Troll Peninsula on the North coast of Iceland. The location is perfect for a ski lodge as skiable mountains surround it and make for a short helicopter ride or ski touring from the door. Even though staying at Klængshóll feels remote and isolated it´s only about 20 minutes drive from next town Dalvík and about 45 minutes drive from Akureyri airport.
