Want to enjoy nature in Iceland? On this snowmobile tour of the Langjökull glacier, we'll drive around impressive landscapes in the second-largest glacier in Iceland.

Description

At the indicated time, we'll meet at base camp in Kjóastaðir, between Geysir and Gullfoss. From here, we'll board a 4x4 vehicle that will take us to the Langjökull glacier. Are you ready to drive a snowmobile?

From the vehicle, we'll enjoy views of the Eiríksjökull and Hofsjökull glaciers and the Kerlingafjöll mountains. Once at Langjökull, we'll don necessary equipment and give you a safety briefing before starting the snowmobile activity. Let's go!

Along the route, we'll reach 1450 metres (4757 feet) above sea level and explore what is known as the "white glacier". We'll visit a real natural ice cave!

Inside the cave, we'll see its translucent blue ice ceiling formed of layers of white ice and volcanic ash. You'll have around 15 minutes to explore the cave and take in this natural beauty.

Once out of the cave, we'll board the snowmobiles again to head back to base camp, expecting to arrive around 5 hours from the start of the activity.
