About Halla river

The small Hallá River falls in to the Bay of Húnaflói in the North of Iceland. It is a delicate and small river, where one can be totally on his own.

Hallá is fast flowing and rocky in the lower part, but the upper reaches are mostly slow flowing with cut-bank pools, ideal for fly- fishing with light tackle.

Hallá is a river fished with only two rods, but guests have over 10 km of river to fish.

The average catch per season over the last few years is around one hundred salmon per season.

Catch and release is encouraged in this small and gin- clear river to preserve the enigmatic Salmon that run in Hallá River. The river has a self- catering cottage, located about 2.5 km upstream from the mouth of the river, with a view towards the Bay. 2 bedrooms.
