The Lights and Nights of Reykjavik
Great article on the New York Times that reminds us that Iceland is an all year around destination. While the Iceland summer, with its almost 24 hour daylight is magical, the winter in Iceland certainly has its appeal. This article is mainly about what to do in the Reykjavik capitol area, but there are bunch of things to do and see in the countryside. Getting out of town, away from the light pollution, will increase your chances of seeing the magical Northern Lights or the Aurora Borealis for instance. And exploring the waterfalls and glaciers of South Iceland in their winter costumes can be a great experience. Hotel Rangá specializes in the Northern Lights. The Northern Lights season runs from early September to April. Check out our current Northern Lights special offer.
Northern Light Webcam
The northern lights webcam is up again at Hotel Rangá! For several years we have had a web camera outside Hotel Rangá pointed in the direction where the northern lights most often appear. It was very popular with our website visitors and very often caught a great view of the aurora borealis flickering over Hotel Rangá. The camera broke last winter, but today we’re happy to report that we’re up and running again! The new camera has already seen some aurora action. You can view it here: Northern Light Webcam
