THE ICE CAVE JOURNEY AND EXPERIENCE

Getting There – An Adventure in Itself
Meet us at the famous Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon to experience your winter adventure in Vatnajökull National Park. Our modified 4×4 vehicles will transport you across rugged terrain through the remote glacial landscapes. The drive is an adventure in itself and within 25 minutes you will be dropped off as close as possible to the edge of Europe’s biggest glacier. From our 4x4s we just have a 5-20 minute walk on uneven terrain up to the best Ice Cave of the season.

Inside the Ice Cave
The main feature of your journey is a visit to an Ice Cave. Walk through a frozen corridor, observing the blue hues and textures of ancient ice. We will have enough time to explore this unique feature, take photos and ask your guide all about glaciers while making memories that will last a lifetime. As the conditions on the glacier are constantly changing we always choose the Ice Cave that is the safest and it can change from day to day. Usually our Ice Caves are between 30-70m long and you can expect other groups in the same area.On our tours we have featured sites like the Sparkle Ice Cave, Blue Diamond Ice Cave, Sapphire Ice Cave or the Crystal Ice Caves, just to name a few. While specific caves change annually due to natural processes, the awe-inspiring beauty remains constant. You can be assured that we at Local Guide always choose the best and safest cave for you! Feel free to send us a message if you would like to learn more about the current conditions.
