Description
At the time indicated, we'll meet at base camp located 46 km (28 miles) from Höfn to start this snowmobile ride around the Vatnajökull glacier. It'll be an adventure you'll remember forever!
After a brief safety talk, we'll board the vehicle and explore the snowy landscape of Vatnajökull. Feel the adrenaline as you drive on top of the largest glacier in Iceland!
