  • A visit to an Iclelandic glacier is an unforgettable experience and Mýrdalsjökull glacier covers one of Iceland's most active volcanoes, Katla!
    We take a hike up this glacier with a local guide to learn about how these are formed, what exactly they are, and explore the beautiful naturally-formed ice caves that stretch throughout the entire glacier!
    A visit to an ice cave is an unforgettable experience but should never be made without professional glacier guides and the right equipment.
    We used TROLL Expeditions in Vik, Iceland to take this tour, and it cost us around $200 per person for a 4 hour hike. (WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY!)

    Your channel popped up among some videos around the time Grindavik was evacuated. I love the complete lack of pretention, no softly lit wistful gazing into the sunset, waffling on about feeling free and at one with nature. "It's a glory hole"... Dude, this is magnificent commentary. I nearly choked on my wine. Love it!

    Now I know what Glaciers are made of. I’m going back to Iceland mid January, from an Australian summer 😂 ugh, I’m sure I’ll survive, we’re tough 😄😄 Unfortunately I’m not capable of a Glacier hike but I’ll definitely be on the go a bit. Meanwhile I live by watching the stuff I can’t do & enjoy what I can 👊

      In January! That'll be awesome with the short days, you can hunt for the notorious northern lights! (Something we failed to find).
      I'm glad our video helped you see what its like at the glaciers, have a great time in Iceland!
      (Jealous you're experiencing the Australian Summer, it's freezing in the UK right now.)

    You can tell how amazing the landscape is through your shots. What a truly unique experience! If I ever go to Iceland I’ll give it a go. What’s the company called you used?

      Thanks for watching! The company was Troll expeditions, from Vik. (They have an amazing soup kitchen at the pickup/drop off point aswell) well worth having whilst you're there - it was perfect after a freezing day at the glacier.

    In most of the videos I've seen Katla looks like a muddy black trail with one or two sections where there is some nice blue ice that forms a small tunnel. Is this accurate?

    • @Escapeists

      No. That's like saying the sun is nothing but a light in the sky. There is alot more to it.🤙🏽

    How long was the walk from parking to the main Kayla cave ? In miles or time wise ? and was it an easy hike or hard one?

    • @Escapeists
      @Escapeists  17 днів тому +1

      It was about a 20 minute walk - not a difficult hike at all mate.
