Our guide to South Coast & Askur Ice Cave in Mountain Truck
Your adventure begins with an exhilarating 20-30 minute transfer aboard an impressive mountain truck with big wheels, travelling from Mýrdalsjökull Base Camp close to the glacier’s ice cave.
Guided by experienced and knowledgeable experts, you’ll walk to the ice cave and explore its captivating features, marvelling at the glistening blue hues and intricate ice formations that create a magical, otherworldly atmosphere. As you delve deeper into the glacier, your guide will share fascinating insights into the geological wonders surrounding you, explaining the history and science behind these breathtaking formations.
Suitable for adventurers of all levels and requiring no prior experience, the journey involves walking on mostly level terrain with a mix of snow, ice, and rocks. Immerse yourself in the surreal beauty of Mýrdalsjökull and create lasting memories as you uncover the hidden treasures within its icy depths. You’ll be provided with all the necessary gear for a safe and comfortable exploration. After your ice cave adventure, enjoy a mountain truck transfer back to base camp.
Nature's showstoppers
Among the stops on this journey along the South Coast are the stunning Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. Seljalandsfoss, part of the Seljalandsá River originating from the Eyjafjallajökull glacier, offers the unique experience of walking behind the waterfall. We highly recommend bringing a raincoat or waterproof coat for this stroll.
Skógafoss, another iconic Icelandic waterfall, marks the starting point of the Fimmvörðuháls hike to Þórsmörk. This picturesque waterfall has been featured in films such as Thor: The Dark World, the popular TV show Vikings, and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty adding to its allure as a must-see location.
Join us on this scenic and adventurous trip to get up close and personal with Iceland's stunning nature.
