Katla Ice Cave Adventure
We will be driving on road number 1, but will soon turn to no-man’s-land! You will be amazed as we drive by the mountains and glaciers around us.
You will be taken up to the base of the Kötlujökull glacier, where the view in front of you will be simply breathtaking: layers of different colored ice creating a striped pattern on the glacier will reveal thousands of years of history right before your eyes!
Your knowledgeable guide will tell you about the Katla Ice Cave, which you will visit shortly after a short hike. This will be both an educational and exciting experience all at once!
Waterfalls
On the way back to the capital, we will stop by the waterfalls Skógafoss and Seljalandsfoss. Skógafoss is located in the beautiful Skógar area and is the inspiration for dozens of folklore tales. We will also stop at the stunning Seljalandsfoss waterfall (the one you can walk behind!) on the Seljalands River, which flows down from the famous volcano Eyjafjallajökull!
Please note: Due to limited daylight, we cannot stop at Skógafoss in wintertime (from the 16th of November until the 31st of January). We stop at both of the waterfalls on this tour from the 1st of February until the 15th of November.
We will arrive back in Reykjavik around 8 PM.
Warm clothing is absolutely essential! Please bring warm and waterproof clothing, warm headwear, gloves, and sturdy shoes, as there is no opportunity to rent any clothing items for this tour.
