Askur Ice Cave & Snowmobile Adventure on Mýrdalsjökull Glacier
Uncover the hidden world beneath the ice with our exhilarating Mýrdalsjökull Ice Cave Tour, riding buggies or snowmobiles.
Discover the awe-inspiring Askur Ice Cave and feel the exhilarating roar of the engine as you embark on an unforgettable journey to this breathtaking natural wonder.
Your expedition begins at Myrdalsjökull Base Camp, approximately a 2-hour and 15-minute drive from Reykjavík. As the closest ice cave to the capital, it is one of Iceland’s most accessible and awe-inspiring destinations.
The journey from the Base Camp to the glacier is an adventure in itself: travel by buggy or a monster truck and snowmobile, depending on the conditions in the area. Each vehicle offers its own unique thrill. No prior experience is required – all you need is a valid driver's license for the vehicle operator. You and your travel companion can share a vehicle, but a single ride is also available.
Upon arrival, you'll be fully equipped with top-tier gear and briefed to ensure a safe and fulfilling exploration. Led by our expert glacier guide, you'll delve into the heart of Myrdalsjökull, breathing in the crisp, pure air of this ancient ice world. Inside the cave, you'll be mesmerized by a stunning display of deep blues, volcanic blacks, and pristine whites – a spectacular palette of frozen colours.
Members of the Icelandia family are the only tour operators granted access to this hidden gem. This exclusivity ensures that our tour offers an unparalleled and intimate exploration of one of Iceland's most magnificent natural creations. Away from the crowds, this rare opportunity to witness a world few have seen is reserved for those who seek the extraordinary.
