Ski touring in the fjords of northern Iceland

Description

In the north and in the east of Iceland, in the fjords then from the village of Olafjordur, a small port ideally located, you will discover the best of the peninsula in terms of ski touring!

Depending on the weather and snow conditions, we will look for the best slopes, the wildest peaks, and you will descend facing the sea to live an unforgettable experience.

If you want to visit new horizons, I propose you other ski touring trips in Ladakh and Zanskar and in the mountains of Turkey.
