Snaefellsjokull Glacier Tours

Tour price £166.67per person

The company has 2 snow-cats making it possible to take as many as 50

23.00.
From the glacier there is a vast and incredible panorama: Hellissandur, Rif, the wide bay
Breidafjördur, and as far as the West fjords (Latrabjarg cliffs). The mountain's rugged terrain is
also impressive, as is the view south encompassing all of the gulf of Faxafloa, to Reykjavik and
even beyond to Keflavik. These are always fascinating excursions, but it is important for travellers
to realise that views from the glacier are naturally dependent upon local weather conditions at the
given moment. Snjofell has helped set up a 450-metre ski lift beneath the "Triangle" on the south
slopes of Snaefellsjökull. This ski area is located in an area free of cravasses at the base of the
glacier, making it possible to keep open for ski enthusiasts 10 month a year.
