Falljökull & Fjallsjökull Glaciers Hike & Boat Trip

Meet at Skaftafell at the indicated time to embark on a hike on the Falljökull Glacier. After preparing hiking gear, we'll start walking along the glacier tongue. This 3-hour hike will take us through the Vatnajökull National Park, where we will admire ice formations, crevasses, and crystal-clear pools. We will share insights about the glacier's features, including hidden lava fields, secret mountains, little-explored waterfalls, and nearby fjords.

After the hike, we will switch our crampons for a small motorboat and cruise on the lake of the Fjallsjökull Glacier. Travelers must use their own vehicle to reach the boat dock. The zodiac trip lasts 1 hour 30 minutes, featuring stunning icebergs and the sounds of ice cracking in the serene environment.

Following the boat trip around the Fjallsjökull Glacier, we will return to the starting point and conclude the tour after a total of 5 hours of activity.
