Traveling to the Glacier: We’ll drive along the highland road to Langjökull. Each turn shows a new, beautiful sight. This place was once hard to reach, but our Monster Glacier Truck makes it easy and safe.
Ice Cave Visit: Step into the heart of the glacier and see the clear ice lined with black ash, and the light blue of thicker ice. The black volcanic ash is from old eruptions, frozen in the ice.
Pictures Time: Inside the ice cave it is a steady temperature just below freezing point. Outside, the big glacier and the area around it are just as breathtaking. Perfect for taking pictures!
