The Highland Center Hrauneyjar, a family run guest house at the start of the Icelandic highlands, is owned by the same owner as Hotel Rangá. The Highland Center is close to many of the most beautiful and popular attractions in the Highlands. These include Landmannalaugar, Þjórsárdalur, Mount Hekla, Veiðivötn and more. The Highlands are for the most parts accessible by road (4×4 cars recommended) during the summer, and super jeeps during the winter months. The Icelandic highlands offer a lunar-like landscape with black sand deserts mixed with yellow mountains, green vistas, lakes and glacial rivers.
