About this experience

Strap on your crampons (ice climbing shoes) and explore the ice kingdom of Vatnajökull National Park with a guided small-group hike to the glistening Vatnajökull glacier.

You'll journey there from Skaftafell, the gateway to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Vatnajökull National Park. Your experienced guide will teach you how to use your hiking equipment and proceed to lead you on a tried-and-true path to the glacier. Look up and admire the vast scale of these white ice giants as Hvannadalshnúkur, Iceland´s highest peak, rises from the frosty fields in the distance.
