Deplar Farm

@ Deplar Farm
It doesn’t get more off-grid luxury than this. Deep in the Fljót Valley on the mountainous Troll Peninsula in northern Iceland sits the Deplar Farm, a converted sheep farm with 13 ensuite bedrooms, geothermal indoor/outdoor pool with swim-up bar, sauna and steam room, hot tubs, media room, spa facility, gym and lounge. If that wasn’t enough there are also two helipads so you can arrive in style to this exclusive and super-luxury accommodation.
Why Stay at Deplar Farm?
Hidden in Iceland’s wild Troll Peninsula, Deplar Farm is a luxurious mountain lodge that redefines Arctic escape. Once a remote sheep farm, now transformed into a sanctuary of style and adrenaline, it’s where Iceland’s untamed beauty meets best-in-class service. If you dream of heli-skiing by day and floating in a geothermal pool under the Aurora by night—this is your place, and your moment.
Deplar, Your Way
Every stay at Deplar is deeply personal. Whether you’re looking for an off-grid wellness reset, high-octane backcountry adventure, or an indulgent blend of both, Off the Map Travel will design it entirely around your pace, preferences, and passions. Nothing here is ordinary—and nothing is pre-set.
Expect:
- Individually designed suites with views of mountains, moss, and sky
- One of the world’s most scenic outdoor pools—geothermally heated, Aurora-ready
- On-site spa, yoga studio, and private guides for every kind of pursuit
- A private chef crafting menus inspired by Iceland’s land and sea
Tailor-Made Experiences May Include:
- Heli-skiing or snowboarding on untouched peaks with expert guides
- Northern Lights viewings from a float in the pool or a fireside glass-walled lounge
- Kayaking, paddleboarding or fly-fishing on the lodge’s private lakes
- Custom wellness days, from massage and meditation to sauna and stillness
Redefining Luxury in Iceland’s Backcountry
Deplar Farm isn’t about escaping the world—it’s about immersing yourself in it, with clarity, courage, and comfort. At Off the Map Travel, we believe true luxury lies in the depth of experience. At Deplar, it’s the rush of wild air, the hush of the valley, and the fact that every detail—down to your morning brew or mountain ascent—is crafted for you, and only you.

We did! Everything was truly wonderful! I think the Holman Husky Lodge was our favourite place. Beautiful accommodations, but best of all, wonderful people! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating, excellent food, we really enjoyed our time there. We also greatly enjoyed Bergen! Opus XVI was beautiful and we loved being able to walk to restaurants and bars and take in the sights. All of our drivers were punctual and friendly. The itinerary was full but not overfull.
Thank you so much! It was an epic trip, we are taking home wonderful memories!

The best travel experience ever on every level you can think of during a Lapland expedition (food, activities, timings, accommodation, transport, service, equipment…). I highly recommend Off The Map Travel for their outstanding level of professionalism and detail oriented mindset!
Sophie & Guy
Amy planned a fantastic trip! Everything was very well-thought out. All transfers went smoothly, accommodations were amazing, great restaurant recommendations and the tours were once-in-a-lifetime, can’t book it yourself off the internet experiences. The guides were all fantastic. Communications were prompt and everything worked exactly the way it was supposed to. What a pleasure! Already working on our next trip.

We – the whole family – loved the whole journey!!
The accommodations, the activities and especially the great people – thank you very much for this fantastic organisation !!!
Barbara
We have loved it so much here that we have extended our stay and will come back to Bjornfjell and stay in one of their cabins until Jan 3 then we are staying in the igloo hotel the night of the 3rd. 😊We added a few excursions this week – we did the whale trip on the RIB boat (wow!), toured the igloo hotel (which is why we decided to book the last night!) and did the reindeer sleigh at Sorrisniva. You were so right, the bonfire excursion was incredible!!It has been an absolutely amazing trip!
Kristen
Off the Map Travel was great! Alex helped us plan the most amazing 10 day honeymoon to Iceland. He gave us great recommendations and was so patient with us during the planning process!
Tori
Fantastic trip to Svalbard which delivered the true Arctic experience we were hoping for. The hotels were excellent and the activities – dog sledding and snowmobile expedition were lead by first class guides.
Top tip! The champagne tasting in the world’s most northerly wine cellar in the exceptional Funken Lodge is not to be missed!
Faith
Hello Lucy!! Kim and I had a fantastic time in Iceland! Probably one of my top 3 trips I’ve ever taken!
It was everything we asked for and you did a wonderful job coordinating it all so beautifully!!
Thank you very much and we will contact you again when we get ready to plan our trip to Norway and Lapland!
Doreen
We really enjoyed our Norwegian adventure despite the -22 days! Unfortunately no real experience of viewing the Lights but we did capture a couple of images on our last night – too much cloud otherwise so lots of snow. We really enjoyed the husky lodge – not at all what we had tentatively imagined. Thanks for your assistance, maybe next time we will see the Lights in all their glory.
Andrew
We originally hired Off the Map Travel in 2020 to set up a trip to see the Northern Lights. That didn’t happen, thanks to COVID. But, we persisted and in March of 2023, we took a 16-day trip that included both Iceland and Norway. IT WAS MAGICAL! Off the Map took care of everything! We were pampered at every stage of our trip. The people they hired and the activities they planned added up to a trip that will set the standard for any we’ll ever take in the future. Alex and his team were fabulous! We recommend them without restraint!
Jim & Kris
What an amazing trip we are having. It is incredible. Many many thanks for arranging such an incredible trip.

Amy was a great help with planning this trip. Our trip turned out amazing. I also was very grateful for Off the Map’s Front Desk service, which promptly handled an on the spot issue we had.
