Into The Glacier - With Snowmobiling From Reykjavík

Description

This day tour gives you the opportunity to enjoy a day full of adventures, departing from Reykjavik in our comfortable coaches. You will get the opportunity of a life time to enjoy one of the world’s greatest wilderness; Iceland’s second largest glacier – even from the inside! Never before the Langjokull glacier ice cave, has anyone been able to see the beautiful blue ice at the heart of an ice cap glacier. No doubt this will be a truly memorable day.

The drive to Langjokull glacier is very scenic and on the way we make a stop by Hraunfossar waterfalls. “Hraun” in Icelandic means lava and the lava at Hraunfossar waterfalls actually came from one of Langjokul glacier’s volcanic eruptions ages ago.

A thrilling snowmobile ride takes us over the immense expanse of ice & snow to the ice tunnel entrance, nestled high atop Langjökull. We spend 1 hour inside the tunnel before reboarding our snowmobiles for the return ride.

This is a rare opportunity to witness the grandeur of a glacier from the inside and out, in a safe, accessible, and thrilling manner. See, touch, and learn about the ice that shapes much of Iceland's natural beauty in this one-of-a-kind adventure into the world's longest ice tunnel.  IMPORTANT: WARM CLOTHING – even in summer – and a driver’s license.

A valid driver’s license is required to operate a snowmobile. Children and guests without a license can ride a double snowmobile with a licensed guest. The minimum age for joining this tour as a passenger is 8 years. Driving instructions are explained here: https://intotheglacier.is/information/driving-instructions-husafell/
