We loved it , best baths in Iceland - It’s been on my bucket list for a long time to visit Vok baths . We finally made the journey and absolutely loved it . We’ve done most of the baths in Iceland and this one we enjoyed the best . The actual building is incredibly modern , immaculately clean . The reception staff are very welcoming. We went on a Sunday in early February and the place was very quiet. The baths themselves are stunning with the lake as the back drop , being able to dip into the lake was great , I’d love to go in the summer as you would be able to swim then . Amazing experience.

Relax like a local in the East of Iceland - Had a wonderful experience at Vök Baths with the winter landscapes in the background. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and it was a great little gem only a few minutes outside of Egilsstaðir. Well worth a visit for a few hours, well priced and the food is good too!

Definitely worth a stop if driving through on ring road - We had a wonderful experience at Vok baths, found the changing facilities very clean and warm, staff friendly and bar good. The pools themselves are lovely so warm and in such a fantastic setting right on the lake. The steam room and cold mist tunnel was excellent. What was the highlight for us was the cold plunge direct in the lake - an experience we didn’t get anywhere else in Iceland and it felt so invigorating! Would highly recommend a stop here if driving the full ring road, felt like a lovely rest before continuing our drive and was so relaxing!

Perfect to end the day - Went to the baths after a long drive and it was perfect to unwind. The place is large with 3 pools with different temperatures. If you want the cold plunge, you can go in the lake directly from one of the pools. There's also a steam room and you get a complementary tea with the admission ticket. The changing rooms are large, clean and modern, fully equipped with toiletries

Peaceful and Unique Lake Experience - I loved that this was on a lake and that the cold plunge was the lake, itself! So open and beautiful. Even with other people around, I somehow felt like I had a nice amount of space.
