West Glacial River Rafting

At 9.30 am, we'll meet at Varmahlíð 560, from where we'll drive in a minibus to the shore of the West Glacier River. We're in for an exhilarating adventure!

After arriving at our destination, we'll gear up with wetsuits, helmets, and life jackets. Then, we'll listen to the guides' instructions for this activity and finally, we'll hop aboard the rafts.

On the way down the West Glacier River, we'll overcome the many rapids of the canyon and experience an incredible adrenaline rush. What's more, if you're brave enough, we'll make a stop halfway down and you'll be able to jump off the cliffs - dare to jump?

We'll end the water experience and put on dry clothes to head back to the starting point. We'll arrive at Varmahlíð at approximately 12.30 pm.
