Botnsvatn Lake

Lake Botnsvatn is a scenic lake located just southeast of Húsavík and is one of the area's most popular outdoor recreation spots. Covering 1.05 km² and situated approximately 130 metres above sea level, the lake is only a short drive from the town centre.

Botnsvatn is the source of the Búðará river, which flows through Húsavík before reaching Skjálfandi Bay. Surrounded by peaceful natural surroundings, the lake is a popular destination for walking, outdoor activities and enjoying the scenery.

A well-known hiking trail circles the lake, covering approximately 5.4 kilometres and offering beautiful views of the surrounding landscape. Visitors can also reach the lake on foot from the town park, Skrúðgarður, by following a marked trail alongside the Búðará river. Along the way, hikers can enjoy views over Húsavík, Skjálfandi Bay and the surrounding countryside.
