Get ready to cross something spectacular off your bucket list with this once-in-a-lifetime outdoor adventure. Led by a certified, English-speaking guide, feel the rush of excitement as you embark on a tour of one of Iceland’s most impressive glaciers, the mighty glacier tongue of Solheimajokull.
Meet up with your certified glacier guide at the Solheimajokull parking lot for your glacier exploration. Upon arrival you can see how Solheimajokull looks like a tongue extending from the majestic Myrdalsjokull glacier. Gaze up on the latter glacier, which, in some places, soars to nearly 5,000 feet (1,493 m).Your expert instructor then leads you onto the glacier where you see firsthand how primal elements have affected the glacier, creating a mesmerizing labyrinth of sinkholes that drill their way into the ice. Explore your spectacular surroundings, such as deep crevasses, icy ridges, and steep slopes. Don’t worry about the level of difficulty. This family-friendly hike is easy enough for almost anyone. After a bit of time on the glacier, you will return back to the parking lot where your tour concludes.
