Blafjoll ski resort is located to the east of Reykjavík. Services to the resort are limited as Iceland has no railways and its highway system is the least-developed in Europe. The most practical and convenient way to get here is to fly to Reykjavík and take the Ski Bus from the airport; hiring a four-wheel drive is another option.

Reykjavík International Airport receives regular and direct flights from Europe and the USA. For cheaper airfares, try Iceland Express, a low cost airline with daily flights from London (Stansted) and Copenhagen to Reykjavík. The Ski Bus meets every flight for transfer to Blafjoll and also goes from Reykjavík, Gardabaer, Hafnarfjörður and Kópavogur.

Blafjoll ski resort is only a 30 minute drive from Reykjavík via highway one and unsealed mountain roads. A four-wheel drive is necessary.

Bifreiðastöð Íslands (BSÍ), a collective organization of long-distance bus lines, does a good job of covering the country with a feasible, though inconvenient, network.
