1-day Ice Climbing and Glacier Trekking near Reykjavík

Resting at the edge of the Arctic Circle, and being a refuge for smouldering geysers, volcanoes and bubbling pools, Iceland is home to stunning scenery to climb.

When the flowing cascades freeze over in the depths of winter, they become a perfect playground for ice climbing.

One of the best locations for ice climbing in Iceland is the area around Reykjavik, the capital and largest city of Iceland. It’s rests in the southwest off the shore of Faxa Bay. It also claims the title of being the world’s most northern capital.

With easy access to the frozen waterfalls, and just a short drive from the city centre, Reykjavik is the perfect place to be based.

After being picked up from your hotel in the morning, we’ll leave the urban landscape for the wilder regions around 1 hour away.

We’ll reach areas that provide the most suitable climbing opportunities for everyone, regardless of your own level of ability and experience.

There are over 50 quality routes for us to choose from, which vary from low angle climbs, multipitches at moderate grades, short and technical climbs punctuated by boulders.

So we can work out the best climbing spots specifically tailored to your own level. And after we’ve enjoyed a quality day of ice climbing we’ll head back to Reykjavik.

**Get in touch now to reserve your place in the wonderland of Iceland on a 1-day ice climbing trip around the capital of Reykjavik.**
