Full Description
Katla Ice Cave Tour With Super Jeep From Vik – After being picked up from Vík, we’ll take you on the road of “no man” that will take you to the mysterious cave. The road is bumpy and views are out-of-this-planet. You’ll feel like you are taking a sneeky peek into the highlands are you see yourself surrounded by mountains covered in moss.
The ice cave is located in Kötlujökull Glacier which is an outlet glacier of Mýrdalsjökull glacier. Underneath awaits the mighty volcano Katla, that names both the glacier and the ice cave.
Once you arrive to the glacier, your guide will hand you all the necessary ice cave equipment and go over a safety briefing and facts about glaciers and ice caves. You’ll take a fun walk on the glacier with your experienced glacier guide before you enter the famous cave of “dragon glass”.
The view inside the Ice Cave is truly spectacular the combination of the colors of the ice we don’t think are possible in nature, which is why this cave is also known as the “Dragon Ice Cave” because of Game of Thrones… Prepare to be amazed!

We had an excellent guide, he was friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared details about the glacier’s history, the region, and how the ice caves were formed. The blue caves were absolutely stunning, and the hike across the glacier with crampons to reach was a fun adventure. It was an incredible experience that I would highly recommend to anyone who visit Iceland!
