Mýrdalsjökull
Mýrdalsjökull glacier is one of the best-known in Iceland, from which the alluring Kötlujökull glacier originates. Kötlujökull is named after the robust Icelandic Volcano Katla, which is covered by the glacier. As the enormous mass of ice slowly crawls down from the volcano mountain, it creates some of Iceland’s most impressive natural ice caves. On this exhilarating Super Jeep tour, you will get to explore the wonders of this stunning natural phenomenon. You will see why as soon as you step in!
The Katla Ice Cave tour – Meet at Vík
On this Katla Ice cave tour – Meet at Vík, we will stop near the roots of the Kötlujökull glacier, and the view that greets us is otherworldly. We will put on our crampons and helmets and take a short walk to the opening of the ice cave. We might need to climb a few steps on ladders to the entrance of the cave. As the natural ice cave is constantly changing, conditions can differ from one tour to the next. The climb is, however, not difficult at all, and anyone in an average physical condition should be able to climb these steps. It might look adventurous, but it is not demanding at all!
Beautiful layers of differently colored ice and volcanic ash unfold as we approach the cave, painting impressive stripes across the glacier. Your guide will tell you all about the history of the glacier, the ice cave, and the surrounding area, making the tour both educational and exciting.
This tour is a meet-on location from Vík.
