About this experience

Explore one of the amazing, naturally formed Ice Cave, which are only accessible in the winter time, when the meltwater from the dynamic outlet glacier freezes over and leaves behind giant ice tunnels.

Meet your highly trained and certified glacier guide, who will provide the necessary glacier gear for this expedition — crampons, harness, and helmet.\n\n\n\nStep aboard the glacier bus, which will take you to the glacier terminal face. Listen to a safety briefing and learn how to use the necessary equipment.\n\n

This spectacular Ice Cave with all the blue and green colors of the spectrum, from light to ocean blue with hints of crystal and green ice. The Ice Cave feels like the Northern Lights left a part of themselves inside the cave.

Take in the beauty of the cave and capture the memory as a perfect photograph. Listen to how and why these ice caves are formed.

After exploring the cave, return to surface and head back over the glacier to the bus before returning to Skaftafell Basecamp where your tour began.
