Reykjavik: Glacier Hike, Waterfalls and Black Sand Beach

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,285 reviews · 11 hours · from $186Our pick

Join guides such as Sara, Al, Bessi, or Thomas for an 11-hour South Coast outing from Reykjavik. You’ll walk about 4 km on Sólheimajökull with crampons and an ice axe, then visit two waterfalls and Reynisfjara beach. The glacier walk is beginner-friendly but still calls for steady footing, warm clothing, and a working phone for pickup.

“Great. Swen is a great guide, showed us great places on the glacier and took us to see a waterfall during sunset. Great views.”
