Myrdalsjokull Glacier

Reviewed By nemanja1205 - Serbia, null

The nature of Iceland is so majestic that anywhere you point the camera you will have the best and most scenic photos. The Myrdalsjokull glacier is one of these amazing spots. Vik village and its surroundings are among my favourite regions in the country.

Solheimajokull Glacier

Reviewed By mw3997 - Houston, United States

Just a couple of minutes off of the Highway 1, there is about a 10-15’ minute walk on a good trail from the car park to the viewing area about 200 yards from the toe of the glacier. It’s well worth the side trip. It is not permitted to go any closer to the glacier without a guide. There is a small glacial lake with little icebergs that you walk by at the end. The black sediment at that the end and along the sides is all rock that the glacier has ground up as the ice moves downhill. What a cool force of nature. For those who have some time and are adventuresome, there is a guide service that will take you on a hike up on the glacier and provides necessary equipment, but it looked like you’d better book it ahead of time.
