Vök Baths Tickets
Vök Baths offers something truly special in East Iceland: geothermal pools that float directly on Lake Urriðavatn's pristine waters. Located near Fellabær, these innovative baths feature floating pools that extend into the lake itself, letting you soak in warm geothermal water whilst surrounded by untouched Icelandic wilderness. The name 'vök' refers to the sections of the lake that never freeze, even in harsh Arctic winters, where natural geothermal activity keeps the water open year-round.
Your admission includes access to multiple pools ranging in temperature, from the signature floating pools flush with the lake to an infinity pool, steam bath and refreshing mist tunnel. The on-shore sauna provides the perfect contrast after your geothermal soaking. What sets Vök Baths apart is the complimentary Tisane herbal tea, brewed using the lake's own certified drinkable geothermal water. You can enjoy this unique beverage at the tea bar or order drinks from the in-water bar whilst you relax. The modern design blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings, creating a peaceful retreat that showcases Iceland's remarkable geothermal energy.
