Cần Quan Tâm

After a short 10 min. ride on the famous “Tröll Bus”, you’ll immerse yourself in the glacier and begin a short hike to the ice cap. Once there, your guide will explain how to get geared up and what the safest practices to walk on a glacial surface. Once you have your crampons and all necessary equipment on it’s time to take to the ice and begin the adventure. As you get into the glacier outlet, the majestic features of the natural world amaze you. Falljökull is a glacial tongue from Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest glacier. The icefall in the area is unique on earth and the further you get, the more it will blow your mind. The out-worldly scenery is comprised the ice formations in the area: deep crevasses, pale moulins, and even ice sculptures. The further we continue exploring, the more the beautiful it gets. Since we’re going to be so high up, we will be able to observe panoramas over Skaftafell National Park, that has gained fame in the last years for being the location for many films and shows. Note that you spend approximately 3 hours and a half hours on the glacier during this expedition.

Don’t let the crowds keep you from doing it

Amazing guides making the experience very enjoyable. It was raining and cloudy, which could have really dampened the experience - but it was completely unique and a lot of interesting views- like most things in the area this was very popular in the summer, so it did feel a bit like grand central station on the glacier, but once we got higher the crowds thinned, which I was grateful for.
5 hour hike was fantastic

We went back and forth about the different tours and ended up taking the longer 5 hour tour. It was definitely the right choice. We saw where the 4 hour tours went to and we got to go much further up on the glacier to the ice wall. Our guide was terrific about teaching everyone how to use the equipment and about the glacier itself. It was an excellent trip overall.
Fun time!

We had a great time with Phillip as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and kept us all safe while showing us a great time. It was nice that they had multiple guides so it felt small. We had a larger group in our tour, but only 8 (including our family of 4) in Phillip’s group so it made it more intimate and easier to feel safe.

This tour was fantastic, 10/10 would do it again. It's incredible to be on the glacier and the views were amazing. We got to rappel down a crevasse and explore different areas of the glacier. We always felt safe and the pace was good. General FYI---the temperature on the glacier is about the same as on the ground, so dress accordingly before putting the gear on
Great views- Great hike- NIIICE

This was an amazing experience. Augustine was our guide and he was perfect! He was patient and explained everything that we needed to do. I would suggest eating a good breakfast before you go, and pack some snacks and water. You have to have ankle covering hiking boots or you will have to use theirs. If you aren’t in good shape, you may struggle. It was moderate for us and we hike/work out regularly.
