Conducted in a small group of no more than six participants, this glacier hike on Sólheimajökull glacier combines an introduction to ice climbing with the chance to explore the incredible ice formations of this tongue of the vast Mýrdalsjökull Glacier. Equipped with all the gear needed for both activities, you’ll venture onto Sólheimajökull alongside an experienced local guide, who will share the history and ongoing evolution of this ever-changing environment.
As you approach the glacier, breathtaking landscapes will unfold before your eyes, with ice ranging in color from brilliant white to deep blue. You’ll spend three unforgettable hours on this magical site, including your first steps into ice climbing: with crampons on your feet and an ice axe in hand, you’ll ascend a natural ice wall for a truly authentic experience!
Make the most of Iceland’s glaciers by joining this Sólheimajökull ice climbing adventure! And if you prefer a shorter outing, the glacier hike on Sólheimajökull alone is also a perfect choice.
