Tailor-made Icelandic adventure at its most remote and refined – designed around you
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.

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.

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
Well-organized trip to Norway and Svalbard with great accommodations and activities. Gwen was communicative and responsive to requests. Highly recommend!
Russell Snook
Exceptional service throughout the entire planning and booking process – travel agencies don’t get any better than this. A brilliant, seamless experience matched by the holiday experience itself. Would recommend ‘Off the Map Travel’ to anyone considering booking for a Nordic experience ‘par excellence’.

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
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
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.

I used OTMT to organise a holiday to see the Northern Lights for my partner’s 50th birthday. They took the time to understand my priorities, the kinds of places we like to stay and the things we like to do. They recommended a fabulous itinerary in Norway centred around the Lyngen Experience Lodge. The holiday itself lived up to expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending OTMT. They listened carefully during the planning and delivered the perfect present for my partner.
Alex
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!

My family and I traveled to Sweden to see The Northern Lights in March of 2023. From the planning process to every detail of the trip, I could not have been more pleased with our experience. Alex was exceptional to work with. His guidance on the time of year, where to stay, activities to do and how to get to and from everything was spot on. I have never used a tour company before but thought a trip of this kind would be easier with some help. I am so glad that I did. The entire week was seamless and completely stress-free, allowing us to truly enjoy Sweden and our time together as a family. I will be recommending Off The Map travel to friends and family and will certainly be using them myself again in the future.

I would thoroughly recommend this company. Their planning and advice was spot on. Alex responded to my calls and emails very promptly. I will definitely use them again for future trips.
