We’ll drive straight to the Langjökull area, where we will gear up for the snowmobiling in the darkness. Guided by the snowmobiles’ headlights, a whole new world opens up before us as we gaze upon the frozen landscape. With good fortune, we will see the Aurora Borealis performing its ancient dance. The quiet, serene environment makes you feel as if you’re by yourself in the world in a place where the stars seem so close you’ll want to reach out and touch them.
Minimum age is 18years old to drive the snowmobile. Available from November – March. Available as a private tour
