Three Hours on Sólheimajökull, Gear Included, from the Tröll Trailer
Three hours on the ice at Sólheimajökull, in southern Iceland, in a small group. You bring hiking boots. Everything else needed to walk on a glacier is provided, which is what makes this workable for people who have never done it before. The guide's subject is the glacier itself: what it is, how something this size behaves, and what you are actually standing on. It is a full walk rather than a look from the edge, and the pace is set so that it stays comfortable. The meeting point is the trailer marked Tröll Expeditions. Be there 20 minutes before the departure time. On Google Maps it is listed as Tröll Expeditions Sólheimajökull.
What's included
- Small Group (12 Participants Max)
- Certified Glacier Guide
- All the Necessary Glacier Equipment: Crampons, Helmets, Harness, and Ice Axe
