Explore Iceland in a unique way on our Private Ice climbing tour. It is an adventure you will never forget!

After a short but very important demonstration on how to properly use the glacier equipment we head up the riddled outlet glacier; walking between deep crevasses, amazing ice formations, jagged ridges and spine-tingling sinkholes.

And let's not forget the amazing scenery surrounding you the entire time. This gives you the perfect opportunity to get that one 'me climbing a glacier' photo you've always wanted!

This private tour is ideal for thous who want to experience a first hand adventure on a moving glacier!
**We always try to fit our trips to our guests needs and wishes**

We start the day with a lovely walk up towards Sólheimajökull glacier. The outlet glacier is a rugged, raw and an ever changing environment of ancient frozen water.

Up there each day is different and the ever changing environment gives our experienced glacier guide a challenge! He'll carefully evaluate the conditions and pick the best places for you to climb.

We then spend a good amount of time trying out various ways of ice climbing in a fun and educating way!
