Overview

We take you into the real, high, and wild part of Iceland on this trip where you will not see many other tourists all day. You will have to cross glaciers and step over deep crevasses. You will have to dig deep and find the energy to keep going up this frozen mountain. The views on top are mind-blowing if you are not in the cloud. Our guides are mostly local and have many years of experience in the mountains here, top qualifications, and also a passion for sharing facts and stories from the area. Safety is also our number one priority and unlike the larger companies, we pick and choose our guides based on their history and skill base. Also, we will aim for the best weather windows and do our best for a safe and successful day. We also offer ski summits at the same price.
