Mountaineers of Iceland

About

Mountaineers of Iceland invites adventure seekers to explore the world’s second‑largest glacier, Langjökull, with a fleet of snowmobiles, super jeeps and purpose‑built monster trucks. Guided by experienced pilots, tours range from short 4‑hour ice‑cave excursions to multi‑day glacier safaris, often complemented by a visit to the famed Secret Lagoon. With over a century of wilderness expertise, the company blends safety, comfort and local knowledge to deliver unforgettable highland and glacier experiences right from the scenic meeting points at Gullfoss and Reykjavík. Each tour begins at a designated base camp—Geldingafell, equipped with electricity, restrooms and all the gear a first‑time visitor needs. Participants receive protective overalls, gloves, shoe covers, a buff and a helmet, and a short briefing to ensure safety in the variable Icelandic weather. The snowmobile rides, which last between 60 and 120 minutes, trace windswept tracks across glacial ridges, offering sweeping views of ice‑tilted crevasses, frost‑covered cliffs and, on clear days, the distant waterfalls of Þingvellir and Geysir. Mountaineers also offers super‑jeep day tours, golden‑circle itineraries, and private or group packages such as corporate meetings and film shoots. The service is fully licensed by the Icelandic Transport Board and the National Tourist Board, guaranteeing a secure, well‑maintained fleet and attentive hospitality in the isolated highlands. Beyond the thrill of riding a snowy platform, visitors gain insight into Iceland’s fragile climate through the company’s environmental stewardship initiatives, including reforestation projects and carbon‑neutral operations.
