Your tour will start at Hof, where you will meet your highly qualified glacier guide, 20 minutes before departure. Once you arrive to the spot, your guide will provide you with all the necessary gear – helmet, crampons, harness, and ice axe (some companies do not provide all the essential safety gear: please be aware of the importance of wearing a safety helmet to protect your head during the hike!) . Once geared up, you will start your journey towards the glacier.
After a short ride on the "Tröll Bus" and a short walk to the glacier, your guide will explain how to use your gears and the safest way to walk on a glacial surface.
Due to large amounts of melted ice, it will take roughly 20 minutes (by walk) to reach the glacier. On the way, you will be able to see how the ice has deformed the bedrock, the moss line of the surrounding mountains will indicate where ice used to be just a few years ago, and a lagoon, where you'll see the last remains of the melted ice. Once you reach the glacier, your guide will teach you how to walk on ice, and after a quick safety talk, you'll start your hike on the icy Falljökull glacier – one of the most magical yet mysterious outlets of the Vatnajökull Glacier. Falljökull outlet is different from other outlets due to the dramatically carved glacier landscapes, which you'll be able to see while on the 3 hour hike.
During the tour, your guide will take you to the most magnificent parts of the glacier – such attractions include crevasses, moulins, glacier mice (a type of moss), massive ice falls, and sometimes ice caves.
