GLACIER HIKES IN ICELAND
We guide summer glacier hikes on Falljökull, the outlet of Vatnajökull between April and September.
See what we have to offer here below.
GLACIER ENCOUNTER
Our most glacier hiking tour!
Glacier Encounter is our classic short glacier hiking tour and is the perfect introduction to glaciers in Vatnajökull National Park. By driving to the glacier on our super jeeps, we reserve our energy and add time for enjoyment on the beautiful Falljökull glacier. We fully carbon offset the tours, making the experience accessible and carbon neutral.
GLACIER DISCOVERY
Glacier hiking in Iceland is a must do for any traveller! Experience the mighty Vatnajökull, the biggest glacier in Europe. On this half day tour we venture higher up on Falljökull glacier. You will explore the glacier’s incredible blue ice, its stunning ice fall, moulins and crevasses.
GLACIER ICE CLIMBING
This glacier ice climbing tour is perfect for those looking for a day out on the glacier, leaving no ice crystal unturned. Our most adventurous tour is suitable for those looking for both a challenge and a unique experience in Iceland. A good level of fitness and enthusiasm is recommended but no prior experience is necessary.
