This amazing salmon river in the northern highlands is one of our best salmon rivers, ideal for keen salmon anglers who seek challenging fishing and love to fish floating river and riffling hitch. Only 4 rods share exclusively the 28 km of water, surrounded by a magnificent scenery. This is an extremely charming river – gin clear with steady water throughout the season and well known for the size of the salmon.

The fishing comes with a comfortable self catering 5 bedroom lodge but the anglers have also the choice of staying at our full service lodge in Blanda.

Svarta is a very sought after river, and not least by the locals, so available rods are getting fewer each day and the river is very booked for the season. Please contact valgerdur@lax-a.is if you are considering this river for the upcoming season or next.
