Glacier Edge Helicopter Tour with Landing from Skaftafell

See Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest ice cap, from both the air and the ground on this scenic shared helicopter flight from Skaftafell. Fly above dramatic outlet glaciers, cascading icefalls and glacier-carved valleys, with views that may include Hvannadalshnúkur, Iceland’s highest peak, and the vast black-sand plains of Skeiðarársandur. A landing in the glacier area gives you time to step out, take photos and experience the surrounding landscape before continuing your flight over the glaciers, mountains and plains of Vatnajökull National Park. The exact flight route and landing location are selected by the pilot according to weather, visibility and safety conditions. Travelers over 120 kg may be asked to purchase an additional 50% seat for weight balance. Infants are not recommended on shared flights; please contact us for private options.
