Snaefellsjokull National Park & Glacier

Reviewed By Margo7850p

As many other things in Iceland, this place is very special and very beautiful. This beautiful place is one of my favourite places in the whole country. Spectacular trails, make sure to allocate good chunk of time to explore the shoreline. Dramatic coastline, waves pounding on rocks and cliff faces, not too many tourists. It's such a beautiful and magical place. Great place for traveling and photography purpose. Stunning beauty. Mother nature at her best.

Laki Tours

Laki Tours takes you on an ocean adventure in four different trips. Puffins galore can be spotted from the protected Melrakkaey island where thousands of other birds also nest. Sea-angling is the perfect family outing and gets even more exciting when you get to keep your catch. From Olafsvik, the Whale tour gives excellent whale watching in deep waters at the foot of the majestic Snaefellsjokull Glacier. Winter brings the orcas, dolphins and white-tailed eagles. We take you to them on what is by now, our most popular tour. "We're living it!"

Surtshellir Lava Cave

Reviewed By acstarr - Crescent Beach, United States

The drive up to the lava cave is out of this world beautiful. Our children loved going down into the cave with our wonderful, informative guide. Part of the cave had ice formations coming out of the ground that looked like they were from a fairy tale. We also experienced lights out. Total darkness and sensory deprivation.

Cave Vatnshellir

Follow the path of the lava flow, about 200 meters into the cave and 35 meters below the surface to see amazing colors and lava formations. The 8000 years old cave is located in Snaefellsjokull National Park, about 10 minute drive from Hellnar.

Reviewed By Ramona_P-B - Bulle, Switzerland

We went there spontaneously and it was just amazing. Walking through the caves with torches and being in total darkness for a short moment (just listening to the sound of the cave) was a great experience. Our guide was funny and very friendly and we would definitely recommend the visit.

Glacier Tours Snaefellsjokull

We offer memorable tours by snowcat and snowmobiles to the top of the glacier Snæfellsjökull. The snowcat tour takes approx. 2,5 hours in total. From our location, the tour starts with a bus ride to the root of the mountain. The bus ride takes approx. 25 minutes. From there on we go by the snow cat to the peak of the glacier. Once on the summit we take a quick brake, where you can take your pictures and appreciate the stunning view of the Snæfellsnes peninsula, including the national park Snæfellsjökull. It's important for travellers to realise that views from the glacier are naturally dependent upon local wheather conditions at the given moment.
