What To Expect

This is the perfect tour for those seeking a bit extra thrill while ticking off some of Iceland’s must-sees. The tour offers a fun, scenic and comfortably challenging snowmobiling ride. It is a great way to explore and experience the wilderness and get in touch with the glacier.The tour starts with a drive through the Hellisheiði mountain pass bringing you through moss-covered lava fields and past geothermal springs down to farmland along the beautiful southern coastline. The first stop on the way starts with a snowmobile ride to the Mýrdalsjökull glacier, close to the volcano Katla caldera. The scenery there can be quite intense, with Eyjafjallajökull glacier watching over from the West and the breathtaking view over the South Coast of Iceland.On your way back to Reykjavík, you will stop by the powerful Skógafoss Waterfall where a short walk up a flight of steps will reveal one of Iceland’s most scenic views.
