What you can expect

Experience an Unforgettable Hike on Sólheimajökull Glacier!

Join us for an exciting adventure across Sólheimajökull Glacier, where breathtaking landscapes and thrilling exploration await.

Arrival & Preparation

Meet your expert guide at the Sólheimajökull car park, where you’ll receive essential glacier gear and a safety briefing before starting your journey.

Scenic Walk to the Glacier

We begin with a 30-minute walk through dramatic volcanic terrain, where black sands and rugged cliffs highlight Iceland’s unique landscape. As you approach the glacier, you’ll see the effects of its retreat and meltwater pools forming at its base.

Stepping Onto the Ice

Your guide will instruct you on proper glacier walking techniques before stepping onto the ancient ice. Feel the crunch of your crampons as you explore deep crevasses, ice ridges, and stunning blue ice formations created over centuries.

Exploring the Glacier’s Wonders

Hike past jagged ice sculptures, sinkholes (moulins), and natural ice tunnels while learning about the glacier’s formation. On clear days, enjoy breathtaking views of Eyjafjallajökull, the infamous volcano-glacier that erupted in 2010.

The Descent & Return

After 90 minutes on the ice, we make our way back, enjoying the contrast between the icy wilderness and the volcanic landscape. The entire tour lasts about three hours, offering an incredible mix of adventure, scenery, and discovery.
