Would you like to explore a glacier? And I mean really, really explore a glacier? This trip takes you to the frozen glacial tongue that is Sólheimajökull. It is an otherworldly scene, rugged, raw and ever changing hub of ancient frozen water. Walk on the glacier and observe the spectacular surroundings. Then we find a ice wall on the glacier and try our hand at ice climbing. We will provide you with all the tools you need: ice axes, crampons and safety lines.
The safety line will make sure that even though you lose your grip you will not fall to the ground. As we drive back to Reykjavik we will stop at the beautiful Skógafoss waterfall. On this trip you get to see and do what most of the population will only dream about and very few ever try. Why not be adventurous and explore the amazing crawling glacier? Guaranteed departures on Saturdays at 8:30am from the 10th of June – 1st of September.
