Crevasse Labyrinth – A Glacier Maze in Skaftafell

Explore a natural ice labyrinth and enter a world of wonder with our expert guides. This is an unforgettable glacier adventure for beginners, families, and photography enthusiasts alike.

Our expertly scouted Crevasse Track leads through a natural maze of towering ice walls – the frozen blue veins of Iceland's biggest glacier. This unique tour combines the magic of an ice cave with the accessibility of a glacier hike – year-round! We explore the Fallsjökull glacier field, an outlet of the mighty Vatnajökull glacier. 

No technical experience is needed. This family-friendly adventure is easy, accessible, and will immerse you in Iceland’s glacial beauty, with spectacular photo opportunities at every turn.

Your journey starts at the Arctic Adventures Skaftafell Booking Hut , where you’ll meet your guide and fellow explorers. From here, we drive about 11 km to the Fjallsjökull glacier tongue, gear up, and set off on a ~4 km adventure through the glacier labyrinth.

  • Certified Glacier Guide
  • Safety Equipment: Crampons, Walking Axe, Helmet, Harness
