Description

Prepare for all weather conditions when you rent crampons for your trip to Iceland. Travelers planning on hiking anywhere that might be slippery or icy, such as waterfalls or glaciers, will appreciate having this important piece of safety equipment. 

Crampons are devices used to enhance your traction when hiking or climbing. They are typically made of metal and are a frame that secures around your shoe and has spikes along the bottom. 

When you attempt to walk on slippery or icy surfaces, the spikes dig into the ground and keep your feet from sliding around. This is essential for your safety when exploring certain areas of Iceland. 

If you plan to hike along some of Iceland’s most incredible glaciers, such as Solheimajokull or Vatnajokull, you will need crampons. While most guided tours will provide equipment, those who are taking their own excursions without booking a tour must be prepared for the conditions. 

One of the main benefits of opting to rent crampons instead of buying your own and bringing them from home is that you don’t have to pack them. Many travelers attempt to pack as light as possible to avoid having large bags to lug around the country, so being able to save space in your bag is always optimal. 

Renting crampons from this local outfitter is very simple and lets you avoid the headache of purchasing heaps of new equipment before your trip. Crampons rental usually costs between 5-8 euros per day, with some discounts for longer rentals. 

The outfitter has crampon sizes from Small to Extra Large, ensuring that your entire party will have properly fitted equipment. Crampons work best with sturdy hiking boots. 

After placing your order online, you can pick up your rental equipment from the downtown Reykjavik office. 24/7 pickup and dropoff are available with advance notice. 

Be fully prepared for your Icelandic hiking adventure without having to bring your own crampons when you opt to rent from a local outfitter. Check availability now by choosing a date.
