Description

Experience the thrill of hiking across the breathtaking Vatnajokull Glacier in Iceland, starting from the picturesque Fjallsárlón base camp. This guided adventure is ideal for those eager to explore one of Europe’s largest glaciers and witness the raw beauty of Iceland’s icy landscapes.

Your journey begins at the edge of the Fjallsárlón glacier lagoon, where you’ll meet your expert guide and gear up with all necessary equipment, including crampons, helmets, and harnesses. After a short 4x4 transfer, set off on a scenic hike through rugged terrain towards Fjallsjökull glacier.
