Location Vik, Iceland

Southcoast Adventure

The breathtaking beauty of the southern region can only be fully appreciated when viewed from above. Engaging in snowmobiling atop the majestic Eyjafjallajökull Glacier offers an unparalleled and unforgettable experience, making it a rare opportunity indeed.



Tour

This tour caters specifically to first-time riders or individuals seeking an adventurous experience, ideal for enjoying stunning landscapes, glaciers, and panoramic views across South Iceland. Perfectly suited for those new to mountain biking or those eager to explore the wilderness, this excursion offers an unforgettable journey.

Starting at the picturesque Gljúfrabúi by Road 249, participants undergo a brief safety briefing before being briefed on proper attire: snow suits and helmets. Subsequently, they board a modified Super Jeep equipped with snowmobiles.

Navigating towards Eyjafjallajökull, the vehicle climbs the glacier's slope, reaching its base where the snowmobiles await. The ride down the steep incline lasts approximately one hour. During peak seasons, due to optimal snow conditions, the tour concludes within two hours; however, during warmer months, the journey requires driving further to access the snowline, potentially extending the duration to four hours.

For maximum enjoyment, consider booking your trip during the winter season when temperatures permit easier travel to the snow line, ensuring a seamless and exhilarating adventure through the natural wonders of South Iceland.
