Absolutely! Feel free to bring your backpack along for the ride. However please note that our snowmobiles don’t have designated storage areas for backpacks, which might make it a bit uncomfortable during the ride.

For your convenience and comfort, we suggest leaving your backpack in the vehicle you used to reach the base camp. This way, you can fully enjoy your snowmobiling experience without any hassle.

Our snowmobile tours take place on the epic Langjökull glacier, Iceland’s second-largest glacier.

How to get to the glacier?

We provide rides from Reykjavík and Skjol to the Langjökull glacier. During summer, we use 4×4 cars to get there, and in the winter, we switch to Super jeeps for the journey.
