Mt. Snæfell Hiking tour – A day on the mountain
The beautiful 1833 meter high Mt. Snæfell is the highest freestanding mountain in Iceland. It is an ancient volcano created rather late during the iceage. On a clear day half of Iceland can be seen from the summit. On this tour we climb the “normal” route on the west side of the mountain which is the most common. Whether you go on a regular day tour or a midnight tour, you´ll experience the power of this mountain.
