Katla Ice Cave Tour

Head deep into the ice cave of Iceland's Kötlujökull glacier, located on the spectacular Katla volcano. Accompanied by a professional guide, you will discover all the hidden corners of this dream-like cave.

Katla Ice Cave Tour

We will meet up in Vík and then climb on board a 4x4 Jeep to explore the magical environment of the south coast of Iceland. We will drive through stunning, unique landscapes as we head to the Kötlujökull glacier.

Upon arriving at the glacier, we get out of the all-terrain vehicle and get equipped to enter the glacier located on the Katla Volcano. This is one of the most active volcanoes in Iceland; however, our visit to the ice cave will be safe.

We will climb up to the famous crystal ice cave, known as the "Yoda Cave." The mix of blue ice, volcanic ash, and rock formations will amaze you. We will explore the cave, observing the blue, grey, and white colors reflected on the walls.

After the cave tour, we will return the 4x4 vehicle and drive back to Vík.
