Go Hiking on the Vatnajökull Glacier and visit one of the most dramatic landscapes in Iceland. You'll walk on the ice like a true explorer and see breathtaking views during this adventure.

Hiking on the Vatnajökull Glacier

At your chosen time, we'll meet at Glacier Adventure Base Camp in Hali. Once we've all arrived, we'll get into the jeeps and drive to the surroundings of the Vatnajökull glacier.

Located in the heart of Skaftafell National Park, this glacier is one of the most impressive in Iceland. When we arrive, we'll get our helmets, harnesses, and crampons on and grab our ice axes before setting off on a unique hike.

The instructor will guide us through a simple glacier walk suitable for all levels. All you'll need to do is enjoy the scenery and views that Vatnajökull has to offer.

During our 1 hour 30 minute tour, you'll discover why this area has been featured in various films and TV series, including James Bond, Batman, and Game of Thrones. Don't forget your cameras!

We'll then return to the starting point 4 hours after our departure.

Hike + Blue Ice Cave

If you'd like to visit the Blue Ice Cave in addition to the hike, you can reserve our Vatnajökull Glacier & Blue Ice Cave Hiking activity.
