Cosa fare a Skaftafell

Probabilmente a causa della stagione estiva, gli iceberg non erano così spettacolari come immaginavo, il che ha causato una leggera delusione. Tuttavia, il personale di servizio è stato eccellente, e il caffè e la cioccolata erano gratuiti. Eravamo di fretta e non avevamo pranzato, quindi ho mangiato due barrette di cioccolato. Molte grazie.

This was a great tour. Our tour guide Rob was able to assess our group and let us hike all over the glacier because we had a longer tour (3.5 hr). He was knowledgeable about the glacier. It was incredibly beautiful.

Anche se il tempo non era dei migliori quel giorno, l'attrezzatura sul posto era completa e la guida è stata professionale e rassicurante! Durante la pausa c'erano anche caffè caldo e cioccolata calda gratuiti da gustare, l'esperienza complessiva è stata fantastica, consiglio a tutti di partecipare!

A striking visual impact: Glaciers are not purely white, but rather interwoven with serene and profound glacial blue and the black textures branded by volcanic ash, making them desolate and magnificent. Down-to-earth yet magical physical sensations: The crunching sound of crampons gripping the ice surface is exceptionally clear. Holding an ice axe and walking among ice crevices and ridges, every step is filled with a genuine sense of adventure. Awe and regret for nature: Witnessing firsthand the noticeable recession of the glacier's edge due to climate warming, beyond the shock, one feels all the more deeply the greatness and fragility of nature. 

The tour guide was extremely professional, placed great emphasis on everyone's safety, and shared information and history about the glacier. I was initially worried that I wouldn't have the stamina for the 6-hour tour, but actually, after every stretch of walking, the guide would stop to share various information, which gave everyone a chance to catch their breath. The scenery is truly beautiful and well worth a visit.
