Ice climbing on the Svínafellsjökull glacier is truly an amazing experience. Not only will you be climbing in an extraordinary landscape, you will also be conquering gravity. Our step by step approach ensures professional instruction in the form and technical aspects of ice climbing.  Whether you are just beginning or looking for improvement, trips are adapted to all skill levels so bring the whole family.  No prior experience necessary. 

We start at 08:30 am each day from Skaftafell National Park, where we will provide you with all of the appropriate gear including crampons and technical ice tools. After taking a short drive to Virkisjökull glacier we will gear up on crampons, making our way past unique ice formations and over the crevasse riddled outlet glacier to a wall of ice.  This is a safe and fun introduction into the exhilarating world of vertical ice and is sure to be an experience you will never forget!
