For those who want to make the most of their day, our FastTrack Katla Ice Cave Tour is the quickest way to experience the magic of an authentic ice cave in Iceland. This shorter, but action-packed adventure takes you from Vík to the stunning Katla Ice Cave in a Super Jeep, crossing rugged volcanic terrain and scenic landscapes along the way.

Super Jeep tour & glacier views

This tour begins at our meeting point in Vík, where you’ll meet your expert local guide before setting off in a powerful Super Jeep. The drive itself is an adventure, taking you across black sand deserts, glacial rivers, and dramatic landscapes shaped by volcanoes and glaciers. In just 45-60 minutes, you’ll arrive at the glacier area, where we’ll gear up with helmets, crampons, and headlamps before setting off on a short hike to get into the Katla ice cave.

A glacier hike to Katla Ice Cave

After a short, scenic walk, we reach the entrance to the Katla Ice Cave – a mesmerizing nature formed by centuries of fire and ice. Inside, you’ll witness the striking contrast of blue ice streaked with layers of volcanic ash, creating a surreal and ever-changing landscape. Our local guide will share insights about how the cave was formed, the effects of Iceland’s active volcanoes, and the fascinating history of the glaciers in the region.
