Join us for an unforgettable glacier hike on Sólheimajökull, meaning ''Home of the Sun Glacier'', one of Iceland's famous natural wonders. Located on Iceland’s iconic South Coast, this adventure is for anyone who wants to touch real ice and see the wonders of a glacier firsthand. It is a perfect blend of easy exercise and breathtaking scenery. Your adventure begins at our base in the Sólheimajökull Parking Lot, about a 35-minute drive from the town of Vík. Here, you meet your friendly, certified glacier guide. After a safety briefing and gear-up, you’ll embark on a scenic walk toward the ice, passing a glacier lagoon where blue icebergs float beautifully in the water. Once we step onto the ice, you’ll discover a frozen world of towering ridges and deep blue formations. Our friendly local experts will be right beside you to ensure you feel safe and confident, while they bring the glacier to life with stories of the glacier - how it was formed, how it is changing, and why it is so special to Iceland. We keep our groups small for a more personal experience with plenty of time for questions, making this a top choice for families, couples, and solo travellers.

Probably my favorite experience while in Iceland.

5.00This was a great experience! Shawn did a great job guiding our tour- good knowledge and information, great wirh the safety info, and then he took us into a little valley/ravine on the glacier which was awesome. The only thing I wanted differently was more time to explore on the actual glacier itself!

5.00Very safe and cool experience. The guides were knowledgable, friendly, and got you out on the activity as fast as they could. Did it at the end of May and was still a lot of glacier to see and explore
