SUPERJEEP AND SNOWMOBILE

Depending on your choice, your tour guide can pick you up at a designated point in Reykjavik, or you can meet us on location at Skjól. Select your preference when you book.

Next, we’ll drive up towards Langjökull Glacier in a specialized Super-Jeep, an exciting experience in itself.

LANGJÖKULL GLACIER

Langjökull Glacier is home to several enormous ice-filled volcanic craters, rimmed in by imposing volcanoes and set in the breathtaking Icelandic interior. The views from the flanks of Langjökull are quite incredible. In the distance rests Eiríksjökull glacier, the highest mountain in west Iceland, the dome-shaped Hofsjökull glacier, and Kerlingafjöll Mountain range.

You’re sure to take tons of memories home from your thrilling adventure in the wintry wonderland of Langjokull’s icy slopes!
