The Korpudalur Hostel in Korpudalur is in a nice old farmhouse which has been renovated into a Hostel. The Korpudalur Hostel in Iceland is located innermost in Önundarfjördur surrounded by high mountains, 17 km from Isafjördur and 12 km from Flateyri. Around the Hostel there are many possibilities for hiking, climbing and angling in the wild nature. A 15 km mountain hiking trail lies through Korpudalur and Alftafjardarheidi, an old traditional route. For birdwatchers, thousands of seabirds, sparrows, ducks and even eagles can be seen. At Isafjördur and Flateyri you can find activities such as swimming, hot pots, kayaking and golf. Scheduled boat trips on Isafjardardjup - to Vigur and Hornstrandir - can also be attempted.

Stayed there in late May, had the place almost to ourselves. Gorgeous terrain, nice for walking. Lucky to have wonderful weather during our stay, but note that this is the north of the Westfjords and there was still snow in the backyard at this time of year. Páll Stefánsson was an excellent host and deserves a special mention. Note that Korpudalur is a decent distance from Ísafjörður, so bringing and preparing your own food is a must. Only possible criticism is that if the place is full, the kitchen and dining area might be a bit cramped.

We booked a room in the guesthouse, which we (due to covid times) only shared with one other person. So there was certainly enough room and showers for us. We could use an extensive kitchen for breakfast (or evening cooking if we would have wanted that). The nearby-living owner was present and making sure that we had a good stay. Lovely man. Nice surroundings. Really nice play to stay the night.

Páll is an excellent host and really friendly. He told us all about the place, recommented a hiking and plenty of other activities in the towns nearby. We took a 3 hour hike the day after and it was magnificent, the mountains are something else! The house is well over 100 year old but the place was clean and well maintained. Really glad we stopped there.

We just stayed 1 night in the hostel - I wish we could have stayed more. We are a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 boys aged 10 and 11) and we stayed upstairs in a dorm room. Very small room, but we didn't need much! Everything was very clean. The location was amazing - really off the beaten track in a beautiful valley at the head of a fjord. Lots of hiking all around the area, and the owner of the hostel has created wonderful hiking maps. There are a lot of beautiful birds around the hostel as well. Guests can pay for breakfast. (We cooked our own, but were envious of other travelers who got the breakfast! It looked wonderful, with fresh trout, eggs, fresh bread, etc.) Be sure to talk to Stefan (or one of the other owners), they have so much good information about the area. I highly recommend this hostel!…

We stayed in the dorm, which was in a small modern but away from the main house. The hut had two rooms of two and a small attic area which slept 4. It had amazing cooking facilities and the view from every side was amazing. The family who has owned the property for many generations were so friendly and told us the history of the area. A good camping area too. The hut could have done with some curtains for the long summer days. And the road is a little rough coming in. *If coming from the tunnel/town direction, take the second signposted turn AFTER the bridge, the road is much much better.*

This cozy hostel, at the end of a gravel road, is truly isolated. It is a modest home, with small rooms and a shared dorm-style bathroom and fully stocked kitchen. Make sure to bring food because there is nothing available nearby. What makes this location special, in addition to the scenery, is that the host grew up in the home. He is kind and gentle, with stories about the area to share. The location attracts travelers who are interesting and independent. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Thanks to the Universe that places like Korpudalur still exist. There everything is just about beauty, nature and serenity. A refuge away from the rest of the world's craziness. Being here feels just normal and healthy, like an evidence. Inside like outside are perfectly tidy and respectful of the environment (the hotel is a zero-waste facility, so prepare to sort any little bit, but if you want, since the owners don't pressure anyone about it. Oh yes, a word about the owners: a couple as lovely and genuine as Korpudalur itself, the definition of sincere and simple hospitality). The potential for outdoor activities (the real ones, like out-of-the beaten tracks hicking or fishing) is huge, see photos. In one word, if you are into real nature but you want to enjoy comfort, this is THE place. I am probably doing a mistake by writing this review since this is the kind of spots you wanna keep for yourself :-) …

The room we got was cozy, the linens were clean and the room warm. The house is beautiful and there is everything there you need. The staff were extremely accommodating and the owners are very knowledgeable about the fjord. If you want to do some hiking there is plenty to do here. Breathtaking scenery. Thank you Pall and Halla!

We were cycling through Iceland and this was one of the stops we planned to make. We hadn't booked anything ahead and the weather was good enough for camping (we thought). After having registered at the house we were told to pitch out tent anywhere on the campsite, where there was a simple cabin with one toilet, sinks and a shower. Since we were the only ones camping there there was no queue... Shower was warm but water-temperature was a bit unstable. The owners were very friendly and told us that we could cook and have breakfast in the barn they had converted to a party hall. Since it had started to rain we gladly accepted the offer and had a good evening inside. We even could use their cooker. Also had a nice chat with the owner. We felt very welcome.
