Overview

Please note that is is a demanding tour with 5 hours of hike.
Getting to the Ice Cave is very challenging, but the reward is equally great!

On this tour, you will go further than other glacier hiking tours go. You will traverse the Falljökull outlet glacier and visit a unique and natural ice cave, only accessible to those in the company of an experienced glacier guide.

With a maximum group size of 8 participants, we can guarantee an amazing and personal experience on the glacier.

The tour begins at Skaftafell Base Camp where you will board the Glacier Bus, taking you to the glacier terminal face. You will be fitted with all necessary glacier gear, free of charge. After a short hike to the edge of the glacier, you start your way traversing the magnificent glacier tongue, full of deep crevasses, amazing ice formations and deep water cauldrons.

When you reach the cave, you will have enough time to get all the photos you want, before you head back over the glacier to the bus.
