Just because you’re heliskiing in remote, often wild areas doesn’t mean you can’t have a little luxury in between runs. At least, that’s true with Eleven Experience Heliskiing Iceland thanks to their lodge in Iceland’s Troll Peninsula that was named one of 2023’s “Best Hotels in the World” on Condé Nast Traveler’s Gold List.
Where is the Troll Peninsula?
It’s probably somewhere you want to be since it receives some of the heaviest snowfall in the world and is home to Eleven Experience Deplar Farm Iceland. To be more accurate though, it’s near Iceland’s northern coast where tall mountains that rise straight out of the sea meet maritime precipitation to create one of the best snow packs in the world during winter.
Once spring rolls around, the weather clears and leaves behind a stable snowpack that has settles in the cold Icelandic winter. Spring also brings the midnight sun, which means skiing and snowboarding well into the evening, as the sun persists above the horizon.
Sold on heli skiing in Iceland? You’ll need the Eleven Experience Heliskiing guides to make the most of your time in the Troll Peninsula. The Eleven Experience guides lead adventures all over the world with the goal of taking guests off the beaten path without leaving the joys of luxury travel behind.
That’s why they created the Eleven experience Deplar farm Iceland, where you’ll enjoy all the basic comforts you need to relax after a day of heliskiing as well as high end touches like geothermal pools, spas, and saunas. All the while you’ll be surrounded by pristine wilderness with the guides, gear, and helicopters to explore it all. Naturally, they include your avalanche safety gear and skis designed specifically for skiing conditions, specifically in Iceland. Guests are welcome to book singles, doubles, or even the entire lodge if they’d like to treat several people to the best trip of their lives.
Oh, and did we forget to mention that Deplar farm guests also enjoy food from Iceland’s 2018 chef of the year, Garðar Garðarsson?

It will start by flying to Iceland. The international airport is Keflavik, which is only 45 minutes outside Iceland’s capital, Reykjavík. As a result, you can make a fun detour in the capital to experience Iceland’s culture. Next, you’ll need to book a short domestic flight to Akureyyri or drive there. After arriving in Akureyyri, Eleven Experience Heliskiing Iceland guides will meet you and drive you 90 minutes to Deplar farm where your adventure will begin.
Of course, you wouldn’t be near the arctic if poor weather wasn’t a possibility. Fortunately, the Eleven Experience Heliskiing Iceland guides believe that there is no such thing as a down day. Thanks to their experience guiding all types of adventures around the world, they can put that belief into practice, especially in Iceland where there are endless adventures to be had.
