What you can expect

The Sólheimajökull outlet glacier is a rugged, raw, and constantly changing world of ancient ice — a breathtaking environment unlike anything else. Your adventure begins with a peaceful walk toward the glacier, where its towering walls of blue ice come into view.

Before stepping onto the glacier, your guide will give a short but essential demonstration on how to properly use the climbing and safety equipment. Once you’re geared up, you’ll head onto the crevasse-filled outlet glacier, ready for your climb. As you walk between deep crevasses, incredible ice formations, jagged ridges, and spine-tingling sinkholes, you’ll truly feel the scale and power of this remarkable landscape.

You’ll spend plenty of time trying different ice-climbing techniques in a fun, safe, and educational way — perfect for beginners and experienced climbers alike. With the dramatic frozen scenery surrounding you, this is the ideal opportunity to capture that once-in-a-lifetime glacier-climbing photo.

This private tour is perfect for anyone wanting a firsthand adventure on a living, moving glacier.

The total duration of the tour is approximately 4.5 hours, with around 3 full hours spent on the ice, including your ice-climbing session on Sólheimajökull.

Don’t wait — book your tour today for an unforgettable experience on one of Iceland’s most impressive natural wonders.
