Highlights

A thrilling Ice Climbing experience with a professional photographer guide. This tour includes 5 professionally edited photos. The Ice Climbing Captured experience is for you. We will adventure through the deep crevasses of Sólheimajökull while taking in some exceptional sights that this glacier has to offer. In regards to our instruction on ice, our day will start with a basic introduction to how to walk on ice and a basic climbing technique called front pointing. We will combine these two two techniques and with a very mellow ice climbing wall, we will put those skills to the test. Once you are confident, we will progress to different walls which offer various challenges until you are totally satisfied. Then, at the end of your tour, we will edit your photos and you will get a photo package within 14 days as the perfect souvenir to remember your epic adventure!
