Deildará is a delightful three rod river situated in the north eastern part of Iceland. Although it is just 7 km long, the 19 named pools offer the chance to catch large multi-sea wintered salmon, brown trout and Arctic char. It is a perfect lodge and river for a small group of friends or family who are looking for a self-service lodge.

Deildará offers great fishing from a comfortable lodge and is also in a great location to explore northern or eastern Iceland as part of a combination itinerary. The salmon fly fishing prime time on the river runs from late July through August. There is every chance of finding a salmon in excess of 15 lbs on light tackle and surface flies.
