Glacier Experience on Solheimajokull

Glacier Experience on Solheimajokull

Introduction

Take an easy glacier hike on the Sólheimajökull glacier with an experienced glacier guide. 

The tour starts with an introduction to the equipment and safety rules needed to explore the glacier before a short walk across the pitch black volcanic ash and sands towards the frozen glacier tongue that is Sólheimajökull outlet glacier. As you walk along the valley which the glacier filled only a few years ago, your certified glacier guide will show you how the glacier is retreating at an alarming rate, almost before you very eyes. At the glacier edge we lace up our crampons and following the guide you will explore this otherworldly natural wonder, a rugged, raw and ever changing hub of ancient frozen water.
