Description

This Sólheimajökull glacier hike is designed for travellers who want the glacier experience to feel personal and manageable. With a small group, the pace is calmer and the guide can keep the focus on safe movement, ice features and the story of the glacier.

Sólheimajökull is one of the best places on the South Coast to step onto the ice, with crevasses, ash layers and changing formations that make the glacier feel alive.
