**Iceland is a magical place, known for its unique landscapes and mythology**. Because it is so way up north, it is a perfect place for snow lovers and ski enthusiasts. Additionally, **its stunning fjords, glaciers and volcanoes make it a favorite travel spot for explorers**. However, because it is a rather remote destination it is always best to go in company of a good guide. **On this 1 week ski touring trip to Iceland I will gladly show you the beautiful hidden places of this breathtaking destination**!

The week long tour is designed so that every day we will see a different Icelandic gem. We begin by flying into Reykjavik from Milan. From there, we will head to Akureyri which will lead us to our ski tour starting point in Dalvik. This stunning little town in the North of Iceland is also a common destination for whale watching! From there, we will set off on our ski tour through different mountains and explore glaciers, lakes and stunning landscapes! Also, on the fifth day, we will drive to Lake Myvatn. This beautiful spot is the result of volcanic activity and is a unique place to visit. It will also give us a chance to rest our legs a bit for the final ski tour days.

Because we will be skiing intensively for a week, a good level of fitness is very important. Some prior skiing experience is also preferable. However, I will be there every step of the way to guide you and show you the ropes. **On this trip you will get the chance to improve your skiing skills as well as to explore a unique and beautiful territory!**

Are you ready to set off on a dream ski touring trip to Iceland? Then book your place now and join me to this magical destination! **I will be happy to make sure you have an enjoyable and safe trip!**

I also offer another ski tour in Iceland that starts off from the gorgeous town of Ólafsfjörður. [Make sure to check it out and explore it with us!](https://www.explore-share.com/trip/1-week-ski-touring-trip-iceland/)

8-day ski touring program in Iceland

This **alpine group ski touring in the northern mountains of Iceland for 6 days** is the greatest adventure you can chose for your winter holidays!

**Eyjafjörður** lies just under the **Arctic circle**. It’s **Iceland’s longest fjord** and home of **Akureyri, Iceland’s northern capital**. It’s surrounded by many summits ranging from 1200 to 1500 m and it offers a lot of interesting descents so it’s an ideal location for a scenic fjord tour.

During most of our trip we’ll be skiing on the west side of the fjord, in the **peninsula of Tröllaskagi.** But we’ll also visit the peaks of the east side.

And because these mountains are located on the very north part of the planet, an excellent quantity of snow is assured every year. Plus the views of  mountains that will surround us and of the blue fjord are magnificent and surreal.

So we’ll be spending long ski days in the best snow you can imagine. Then in the afternoon you’ll be able to relax in local swimming pools, heated with the geothermal water that makes a perfect natural hot tub.

**Son don’t hesitate and send us a request to make this dream adventure come true! We will make sure that this Ski touring in the Iceland’s northern mountains and fjords (6 days) fulfills all your wishes.**

A gentle climb up the Gvendarskál valley is rewarded with view to the dim blue sea of the Eyjafjörður and the North Atlantic Ocean.  From here there are various possibilities of descents.  Often we have one run down some excellent ski slopes that goes straight down to the valley, before we climb up again and choose a different descent. In good snow conditions it is possible to ski down a steep open slope that faces Eyjafjörður, with the ocean directly below your skis! After a good day of skiing we can relax in the hot tubs of the swimming pool in the village of Dalvík.

**Skiing:** 5-7 hours     **Ascent/Descent:** 900-1200 m (2900′-3900’)

This impressive mountain boasts one of Iceland’s longest descent has abundant snow in the winter time. The scenery from the top is least to say incredible. A magnificent view of nearby mountains, the fjord and into the Icelandic highlands will salute us from up on the summit. After removing our skins, we hit the slopes and ski down to the coast.  
On the way back we will experience a little of the local culture and history with a visit to the tuff farm at Laufás and the town of Akureyri, where it is possible to go for a relaxing bath at the Jacuzzis of the town’s swimming pool.

**Skiing:** 6 to 7 hours    **Ascent/Descent:** 1100 m (3500′)

The mountains over the village of Dalvík offer several good ski routes and a few of those can be found on the Sauðaneshnjúkar peaks (992m/3250’). The climb to the top is easy and from there we get a long descent down a great couloir back down to the valley. We can also take a detour to the Jökulbakstindur further in the valley for an a choice of different and possibly steep descents. On the way back we will visit a nearby microbrewery for a taste of the local brew.

**The Icelandic Westfjords are a stunning and remote destination.** The pristine landscapes and perfect snow capped peaks are a dream for ski enthusiasts, explorers and adventurers. But of course, it is not easy to get there. **On this unique 6-day ski and sailing tour in the Westfjords you get a chance to revel and ski in this breathtaking location.** Plus get to know Iceland, plus eat the best fresh fish ever, plus maybe even see northern lights, Arctic foxes, seals, whales, and Eider ducks.

As if all that weren’t enough, **the adventure takes place aboard a beautiful Aurora Arktika sailboat**. This allows us to reach unexplored places through the fjord coasts. Also, **the boat has all the amenities you could want and need**. She sleeps 12 people, has hot showers, TV and yes, even a library! Additionally, all the meals during the trip are included and are top quality, fresh and gourmet. Think fish, stews, sushi, all kinds of seafood, Icelandic yoghurt, cheeses, vegetables and more!

But let’s get down to what we’re really in this for. After all, this is a ski tour! And we shall ski all throughout the Icelandic fjords just south of the Arctic Circle. **Every day we will explore a different area and this will also give us the chance to try out different slopes and a variety of off-piste conditions.** For this reason, we do recommend you come with at least some if not a lot of backcountry skiing experience.  We usually suggest AT or telemark skis  but if you have experience, splitboards are also welcome. And, a good fitness level is a must! Anyway, keep in mind that you will have a 4:1 guide ratio to show you the ropes and help you out every step of the way. **Additionally, we will do some safety training so you will have all the skills you need to tackle any difficulties that you might encounter**. 

I’ve done this trip twice already and I can honestly say it’s my favorite, and for good reason. Iceland is a magical place and I hope you can explore it with me! Also, it is well set up for tourism and there are some great travel deals for east coasters from Montreal, Boston, New York, and Washington D.C. Make sure to check them out!

**Are you ready to join me on a ski and sailing tour of a lifetime? Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to explore Iceland’s Westfjords!** Book your place now and make March unforgettable this year!

We will begin our tour by departing from Ísafjörður at 2pm- After 2-4 hours of sailing we will arrive to Hesteyri in the Hornstrandir Nature Reserve. There, we will relax and maybe explore an old abandoned whaling station! In late March there is around 12 hours of daylight so we might also do a short ski run.

Departure from Ísafjörður

After a safety briefing, avalanche search exercise, and an explanation of what to do in case of emergency, we will ski from Hesteyrarfjörður to Veiðileysufjörður. The Hesteyrarfjörður ascent is easy and there are many possibilities on the other side of the ski slopes. Those brave enough may try skiing the steepest slope of the trip, 45°-50° in steepness. After, we will have dinner at the anchor in Veiðileysufjörður.

Hesteyrarfjörður to Veiðileysufjörður

Then, we will ski down to the first valley in Lónafjörður and climb at least two more mountains before meeting Aurora again in the afternoon.

The beautiful Rangali anchorage provides many different ski opportunities. One route will take us to the Snókur mountain with a good view of the coastal mountains on the east side of Hornstrandir.  And, we might also get to pick some mussels to snack on later!

Skiing near Rangali

We will begin the day by skinning up from the Sópandi inlet over to Hrafnfjörður (Raven Fjord). The mountain cirque at the head of the fjord is very beautiful and the anchorage is a perfect spot to spend the night.

On the last day of our adventure we will have a morning ski session before sailing back to Ísafjörður. We will arrive around 4pm. This will give you time to catch the last flight from Ísafjörður that night, but we suggest you stay at least one night to relax and get to know this old and beautiful town.

Pick up in Akureyri followed by a 40-minute transfer to our Karlsá Lodge for a meet and greet. There we will have the welcome dinner.

Arrival

This is our first splitboarding day, above Karlsá Lodge.

First, we’ll spend the morning  on detailed avalanche transceiver and avalanche rescue training. Then, we’ll go out to tackle our first peak of many. On average, our daily vertical ranges from 1000 to 2000 meters, depending on the group.

The night here is no excuse to stop, as the midnight sun will accompany us. So we can keep on riding until you wish so.

Avalanche training- Splitboarding

After each day of splitboarding and skiing, we will enjoy the rare pleasure of sitting in the local geothermal baths, or relaxing in the sauna followed by one delicious meal after another feasting on organic lamb, fish and game prepared by our gourmet chef.

Splitboarding and Ski Touring

Day 6 is our last splitboarding day, and of course I have saved the best for last!
