The vehicles are well-maintained and easy to handle, making this a fun and accessible activity for everyone.

If you’re driving, a valid driver’s license is required, but non-drivers can still join as passengers. With this flexible setup, the whole group can enjoy the adventure together.

Your snowmobiling destination is the winter park or the surrounding peaks of Akureyri. 

As you ascend the snow-covered mountains, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of Eyjafjordur, Iceland’s longest fjord, framed by the majestic peaks of the Troll Peninsula. 

The unspoiled beauty of the landscape, with its endless stretches of white snow and dramatic vistas, is nothing short of awe-inspiring.

Your guide will lead you to the best viewpoints, where you can pause to soak in the scenery, capture stunning photographs, and marvel at the stillness of Iceland’s winter wonderland.

With the guide and the rest of the group, you’ll zigzag and speed more through the snow plains and dunes of the mountains. However, please note that the level of snow cover layers depends on weather conditions.

The entire trip takes roughly two hours. After this, you can independently explore Akureyri and the rest of North Iceland.

Dressing appropriately for a snowmobiling adventure in North Iceland is essential. Wear warm, layered clothing to adjust to changing temperatures, and don’t forget a windproof and waterproof outer layer to protect you from snow and wind. 

Sturdy boots, a hat, and a scarf are also recommended to keep you cozy throughout the ride.
