Iceland’s leading luxury resort invites guests to enjoy a stargazing extravaganza
Did you know you can see a galaxy 2½ million light-years away with the naked eye? Or craters on the Moon with binoculars? In which case Hotel Rangá’s state of the art observatory is a stargazers heaven.
Iceland is one of the leading locations in the world for viewing the Northern Lights and also for Stargazing. The unpolluted skies and breath-taking star-scape over the River Rangá inspired the construction of a private observatory which was competed in 2014 at Hotel Ranga.
The unspoilt location around the hotel makes it the prime location for viewing the hidden characteristics of the enchanting night sky. During the summer, the observatory can also be used for solar observing. The observatory is open every clear night and guests at Hotel Rangá get a complimentary guided tour of the night sky by local expert astronomers.
Hotel Rangá is the only 4 star resort in South Iceland and offers luxury accommodation, gourmet food and outstanding views. It boasts all the facilities and services of a modern resort yet is situated in an area of exceptional natural beauty. Located about an hour from Reykjavík between the towns of Hella and Hvolsvöllur, Hotel Rangá lies just off the main road right in middle of South Iceland’s panoramic scenery. Hotel Rangá has been voted one of the best places in the world to see the Northern Lights.
