Small Group 6-Hour Glacier Hike, Jeep and Boat Tour in Fjallsjokull

Book this incredible guided excursion to explore the icy wonderland of the Fjallsjokull glacier. Those eager to discover a glacier and a glacial lake with a hike, boat trip, and jeep tour should now book this small group tour.

Your tour starts at the meeting point at the Fjallsarlon glacier lagoon car park. There is free parking, toilets, and a restaurant where you can get refreshments. Here, you will meet your expert English-speaking guide and the other guests on the tour.

This excursion is a small group tour, so you will have plenty of time to get to know the other guests and ask the guide any questions.

Your day starts with a boat trip on the Fjallsarlon glacier lagoon, where your driver will navigate through various shapes and sizes of icebergs. The lagoon sits at the foot of the Fjallsjokull glacier, an outlet of the Vatnajokull ice cap.

It is known for its serene atmosphere and stunning views of icebergs calving from the glacier into the water. The area is less crowded than the Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon, providing a more intimate experience with Iceland's glacial landscapes.

It's a popular spot for photography and observing the unique interactions between ice, water, and volcanic rock. From the boat, you'll get great views of the Vatnajokull glacier, the largest glacier in Europe.

Next, you'll take a scenic hike on Fjallsjokull glacier. You'll board a 4x4 jeep to get to the glacier for a fun off-road experience. It is then a 45-minute hike to the glacier's edge.

Again, this glacier is one of the lesser-visited glaciers in Iceland, so you can enjoy it without the crowd of tourists. Fjallsjokull glacier is part of the larger Vatnajokull glacier system.

This glacier flows from the Vatnajokull ice cap to the glacial lake, Fjallsarlon, creating a picturesque and dramatic landscape.

Fjallsjokull glacier is known for its accessible location. It offers visitors a chance to witness impressive ice formations and occasional calving events, where chunks of ice break off into the lagoon.

Your expert guide will give you a full safety briefing and all the necessary equipment, including a helmet, crampons, and a harness. You'll spend between 60 and 90 minutes on the glacier, and your guide will tell you more about it as you hike.

When your time on the glacier is finished, you'll hike back to the 4x4 vehicle and then drive back to the meeting point, ready to continue your adventures in Iceland or head home.
