Ice tour
In this tour we drive to the tip of an outsled
glacier, put on crampons, and with ice axe in hand we make about
2 km guided excursion onto the glacier. Optionally, also short
ice climbing route to try, using ropes and climbing equipment
to ensure complete safety. No exceptional fitness nor climbing
experience is needed, only guts!
- Equipment provided crampons and ice axe
- Group size 2 to 7 people (up to 21 without the ice
climb)
- Duration 2-4 hours
- Price $50, ISK 4,000 ISK per person
For more advanced climbers we can concentrate
on the ice climbing. All around the year it is possible to find
very demanding climbs in the glaciers of Öræfi, and in the winter
there are often good possibilities for waterfall
ice climbing. We offer a whole day Ice Climbing Course for 1 or
2 clients at
a time.
