Walk on Ancient Ice, Capture the Moment
Experience the wonder of walking on a glacier with our unique combination glacier hiking and photography tour at Sólheimajökull. This accessible adventure allows visitors of all fitness levels to explore ancient ice formations while creating lasting memories through professional photography.
Glacier Hiking with Professional Photography
Sólheimajökull, an outlet glacier of the mighty Mýrdalsjökull ice cap, offers the perfect introduction to glacier hiking on Iceland’s scenic south coast. What makes this tour unique is the integration of professional photography — a photographer-guide captures your adventure so you can focus on the experience. Each participant receives two professionally edited photographs of their glacier journey.
Dramatic Ice Exploration
Walk on ice that formed hundreds of years ago, exploring spectacular crevasses and moulins (glacial waterfalls) that reveal the dynamic nature of glacier movement. With a maximum of 10 guests per guide, you get personalized attention and the chance to learn about glacier formation, climate science, and the forces that sculpt this ever-changing landscape of ice.
Accessible South Coast Adventure
The tour progresses gently from flat rocky terrain to gradual glacier inclines, making it suitable for families and beginners. Located along Iceland’s popular south coast route, it combines perfectly with nearby Seljalandsfoss, Skógafoss, and Reynisfjara black sand beach for a full day of exploration.
