Self catering options in Iceland

Lax-á offers both full service lodges and self catering ones in the 30 rivers we offer in Iceland. The self catering lodges are usually by a smaller river where you have the river to yourself. Number of rods are from 1 – 4 which suits up to 8 anglers to share. It is very common here in Iceland to share a rod but then friends or couples buy just one rod/license and then change turns fishing. The fishing day is long and often hard work so for many it is more enjoyable and relaxed way of fishing not to mention that it is also more economical.

If you visit our website www.lax-a.net and go to Iceland, Self catering salmon rivers you find the list of the rivers we have. Best time for salmon fishing is July and August, but for some June and September are good.
