Iceland is famous for its glaciers. South Iceland has a total of four glaciers (Mýrdalsjökull, Langjökull, Eyjafjallajökull and Tindfjallajökull) in addition to Vatnajökull (Europe’s largest glacier) and Hofsjökull glaciers close by. Glaciers possess the kind of subtle beauty that is bound to impress, whatever the weather.
All glaciers are constantly moving, flowing like extremely slow rivers. Enjoy walking up and down the magnificent blue-white ice with only the sound of your crampons grasping the ice breaking the silence. For a true adventure, journey into the depths of an ice cave and marvel at the magnificent blue ice that surrounds you.
Various glacier tours are available, depending on the season and weather conditions. All glacier walk tours require an expert guide with specialized knowledge. All tours can be tailored to your wishes. Reach out to our front desk concierge today to book your dream trip.
