Welcome to The Fox Hostel. Experience the magic of southern Iceland in a place where family, friends, and nature come together. Nestled in the heart of Hrífunes Nature Park, our hostel is housed in a charming, traditional Icelandic barn that once served as a home to sheep and lambs.
This space has been thoughtfully transformed into a welcoming haven for travellers. The design of The Fox Hostel draws inspiration from Nordic style, seamlessly blending modern lines with the warmth of Icelandic tradition to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere for everyone. The Fox Hostel is named after the elusive Black Icelandic Fox, which roams the surrounding Hrífunes Nature Park. Here, in the peaceful heart of Iceland, we invite you to become part of our family. Whether you’re here for a quiet getaway or an adventurous stay, we offer more than just a place to sleep. We offer an experience of togetherness, where families, friends, and guests from all corners of the world come together as one.
