Sightseeing

Snaefellsjokull Glacier

Reykjavik · Iceland

Snæfellsjökull Glacier caps the Snæfellsjökull volcano on the tip of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in western Iceland—immortalized by Jules Verne as the entry point to the Earth's interior in 'Journey to the Center of the Earth.' The glacier sits within the Snæfellsjökull National Park, Iceland's westernmost national park, and can be explored by guided snowcat tours. On clear days, the glacier is visible from Reykjavik, 120 km away across the bay.
