Our first full season at Long Valley Lodge was one to remember. From salmon on the mighty Blanda to char and brown trout in the surrounding rivers, the variety and scenery were unmatched. Guests enjoyed world-class fishing, exceptional food, and the comfort of Iceland’s premium luxury fishing lodge.
Here’s a look back at a season filled with incredible catches, great company, and unforgettable moments on the water.
