DESCRIPTION
This walk takes us on to the Svínafellsjökull glacier tongue. Svínafellsjökull is a breathtaking outlet of the Vatnajökull glacier and the views are simply stunning. We will walk through a wonderland of ice sculptures, meandering through the ridges and deep crevasses of the glacier. At the beginning of our tour, an experienced guide will teach you how to use basic glacier equipment like crampons and ice axes as they are necessary equipment for this tour.
NOTE
Bring warm clothing, rain gear and good walking shoes! If needed, you may rent hiking shoes.
