Deplar Farm
HELI-SKIING
Heli-ski in the land of the midnight sun.
You’d be hard-pressed to find a heli-ski environment like Deplar Farm anywhere else on Earth. It’s where the midnight sun allows for long peak-to-sea descents over the North Atlantic Ocean late into the evening. Here, huge couloirs and vast valleys scream for first tracks. Iceland’s maritime snowpack provides stable conditions ranging from smooth, buttery slopes and corn snow to fresh powder. At the end of the day, return to our Condé Nast award-winning lodge for a cocktail in our geothermal-heated pool or relax in our 5,000-square-foot spa.
Lodge Details
Highlights
Deplar Farm was named one of the “Best Hotels in the World” on Condé Nast Traveler’s Gold List. This former sheep farm blends naturally with the surrounding landscape. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the mountains and driftwood and stone from the Fljótaá River adorn the rooms. Two helis stand right outside your front door ready to take you up to the peaks in minutes. After a day of skiing, relax in our indoor/outdoor pool and Viking sauna or take a dip in our cold plunge. End the day sitting fireside, with cocktail in hand, before enjoying a chef-prepared, Icelandic dinner.
