Skalafellsjökull by Snowmobile!

The Skalafellsjökull glacier is the largest in Europe and one of the most accessible, if you don’t mind a 45 minute drive in a 4x4 up a foggy mountain road!
The snowmobiles are parked up top. The coveralls are essential!



About 10km across the snow took us to the glacial edge looking down into the river valley that feeds the Iceberg Lagoon we visited earlier. 




Can definitely see the appeal of racing across the snow on these fun machines! Just wish we weren’t restricted to well-rutted routes, but gotta respect the glacier.
Foresee more of this kind of fun when Marina moves to Denver!
