Traveling to Iceland doesn't have to blow your travel fund. For less than $10 per night you can pitch a tent at the Reykjavik Campground and for additional fee, for those who don't want to travel with a tent, the capital city's campsite rents the equipment.
In a city, and country for that matter, where a cup of coffee averages $3, camping in Reykjavik is by far the cheapest way to see to Iceland's vibrant boutique laden capital city on a budget. Sure, traveling in Iceland is expensive, but the Reykjavik Campsite offers up tenting on a grassy lawn for under $9 a person in Reykjavik. In fact, they actually rent tents as well for an extra $10 a day if you don't want to carry your tent with you.
For the price of the pitch, the capital city's only campground offers its guest clean bathrooms, showers and an abundance of hot and cold water. The Reykjavik Campground has a kitchen area with hot plates, numerous picnic tables and, my favorite, free WiFi. Because it is run in conjunction to the Reykjavik City Hostel, campers get access to the hostels common area, bathrooms and showers, the laundry and more free WiFi.
Situated less than 2 miles from Reykjavik's tourist, historic downtown section, the Reykjavik Campground is open from May 15 to September 15. Because the campground can accommodate up to 650 people in tents, cabins, caravans or cars, space is almost always available; therefore, no spaces can be reserved and reservations are not required.
The Reykjavik Campground, as well as camping in Iceland in general, is definitely a great way to travel to this beautiful country while on a budget. One bonus to staying at the campground is that it is located right next to Laugardalslaug,one of the city's largest thermal pools in the capital city and another great cheap, fun option when visiting the city.
