A fun half-day trip with rappelling, jumps and slides in a river canyon!
Are you looking for the ultimate adrenaline rush in Vatnajökull National Park? Look no further than this half-day canyoning adventure with Ice Guardians.
We are the only operators of canyoning adventure experiences in Iceland!
This half-day trip is perfect on a sunny day, but it’s also thrilling even on rainy days, we’re getting wet anyway!
You can truly embrace the elements by jumping and sliding in, and abseiling down, the waterfalls and blue pools beneath the Vatnajökull Ice Cap.
We begin by meeting on location, getting you geared up and briefed on safety.
After setting off, we will walk through the nurseries of trees planted by locals of the Forestry Association of Austur-Skaftafellinga.
Along the way, you will see what it would’ve been like to be a farmer at the foot of Europe’s largest ice cap, Vatnajökull.
This trip is built for anyone who can swim confidently in the water, move with ease for half a day, and walk on uneven trails.
We will take you through and practice the techniques required to get down the canyon safely.
Canyoning experience is NOT necessary.
Join us canyoning in Vatnajökull National Park and we will make sure to send you home with a story to tell!
