Some info...
Your ski tour to Iceland!
White alabaster mountains and a deep black volcanic beach in front of a turquoise North Sea, endless descents with a view of the fjord and the Polar Sea, full board and double room in the best 4* hotel in the region, in-house geothermal pool, sauna, optional helicopter flights possible.
Daily you start on the "Troll Peninsula" in the north of Iceland to dreamlike ski tours. The typical 4* hotel directly on the quay at the harbour in the old herring town of Siglufjördur has a great deal of comfort and radiates cosy charm. In the land of the midnight sun, you alternate your tracks at the back of the valley on a glacier or at the fjord over the Arctic sea. In the evening relax in the warm, volcanic-heated bath or sit in the café in the colourful little town with the sun-hungry locals. A day without ski tours is planned, including a visit to the Godafoss and Myvatn areas and a visit to a larger geothermal spa.
With very good snow conditions and interest we can undertake on request a helicopter flight far inland, in order to tour in otherwise unreachable region.
Ascent 3 – 6 hrs, technical/Physically medium, racy runs
Overnight in a hotel in a double room – eating and enjoying in the in-house restaurant
