Difficulty Ratings

Easy, moderate, challenging … What does this really mean? Below you can read the definitions we use for our ratings. We hope this will help you get an idea of the trip difficulty to make sure you choose a trip that suits you best.

Easy Suitable for most people in fair condition. You have to be able to walk on uneven surfaces and hike for at least 2 – 3 hours at a slow pace, with breaks. Trails are generally of good quality and glaciers travel at a relatively low angle.

Moderate Suitable for those in good condition who are able to walk for about 4 hours at a low or moderate pace. Trails are generally of good quality and glaciers travel at a relatively low angle.

Challenging For someone in good hiking condition and with experience of hiking. Trails are generally in fair conditions but some parts of the tour might be off track. Glacier/snow travel can be on uneven ground with challenging sections. Increased distance. We recommend guests have the ability to cover 12 km a day on rugged trails and snow.

Demanding Only a few of our trips are defined as Demanding. Hence most of our tours are rated Easy, moderate, or challenging.

Demanding tours are for someone in very good hiking and physical condition. Trails are generally in fair conditions but large sections of the tour might be off track. Glacier/snow travel on uneven ground with some challenging sections. Increased distance. We recommend guests have the ability to cover 20 km a day on uneven trails and snow. A significant increase in elevation and some technical difficulty should be expected.

Equipment list

Equipment needed can vary greatly from season to season as well as the length of your tour. The following list can be used as a guideline for our trekking, hiking, and longer Snowmobile tours in Iceland.

Try to pack as lightly as possible and take only essentials. Excess baggage can be a burden to you and to our support crew. Keep in mind that there are limits on how much your duffel bag can weigh because the weight restrictions on international and domestic flights are usually around 20 kg.

Luggage for Multiday tours and longer journeys with assistance vehicle An extra bag clearly marked with your name can be kept at your Reykjavik accommodation. Large duffel bag (60/80 liters) sturdy and water-resistant, not exceeding 15 kg Daypack (30 to 50 liters)

Clothing You will need to bring comfortable and adequate clothing to protect you from the cold and wet weather. Wool, synthetics, and wool/synthetic blends are good. We discourage the use of cotton, as this does not insulate against cold or wet conditions. When camping, tents are provided. You will be responsible for bringing your mattress and sleeping bag.

When layering, the innermost layer should be long underwear. The middle layer can be a synthetic turtleneck or wool shirt, and pants. The outermost layer should be a synthetic jacket, and/or a good quality Gore-Tex wind/rain parka and over-pants.

For quantities for each item listed, use your own judgment, based on the expected weather conditions and overall packing/weight restrictions for your luggage.

  • Regular underwear. Synthetics are easier to wash and dry

Fantastic experience

"We had an amazing experience on this tour. Our driver (Elias) was knowledgeable and had the perfect balance of sharing information but also giving us time to reflect and enjoy the breathtaking landscape of Iceland. Highly recommend this company, tour, and driver!"

Glacier hike with Alberto Marini

"We had a private guided glacier walk for 3 active senior friends with Alberto Marini who is an Italian-born mountain/rock climber. Though cautious by nature, I felt completely comfortable with Alberto who apparently trained many of the other guides we encountered. He was knowledgeable about glaciers and the natural history of Iceland-verified by my geologist husband. Definitely worth doing especially if with Alberto."

Snowmobiling gone wild on a glacier

"We had a private tour with 2 couples to do snowmobiling on a glacier. Magnus was a very skilled ATV driver taking us on an adventurous 1hour drive to get to the glacier to meet snowmobiles. We enjoyed the vantage point even on a cloudy windy day to ride around to see the surrounding volcanoes. Quite a fun 3 hour tour."

Private Tour to Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach

" We took a private tour from Hotel Ranga out to Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach. We rented a car but decided it was too far to drive on our own there and back in one day so we booked a tour with Southcoast.

Our driver, Stefan, was fantastic! It was a 10-hour journey (including a stop for lunch) so it was nice to have a guide that was a great conversationalist and very knowledgeable about Iceland. He answered all of our questions about Iceland and stopped at a few places we never would have found on our own.

We had a gorgeous day and the pictures we got on Diamond Beach were out of this world. Would highly recommend this company and this guide, especially if you're interested in a private tour. "

The Most Incredible Snowmobile Tours In Iceland | 2024

Seeing Iceland from above and cruising over a glacier on a snowmobile is an absolute dream. Read on to find out the best snowmobile tours in Iceland!

snowmobile tours iceland

Recommended Tour

Snowmobiling On Langjokull Glacier!

We think you have two incredible options to choose from. Firstly, the highest-rated snowmobile experience on Langjokull Glacier , a 4-hour snowmobile adventure from Gullfoss waterfall, or the incredible combi tour that includes the Golden Circle and finishes with the exact same snowmobile experience. The question is, do you want to spend the extra money to combine the Golden Circle with your snowmobile experience?

Heading to Langjokull Glacier takes you past the Golden Circle so we think it’s a no-brainer to combine! However, If you have done the Golden Circle before or you have your own transport and you have decided to do it yourself, then go for the snowmobiling on its own .

Make sure to watch our video below to see exactly what you’re in for!

The Best Snowmobile Tours In Iceland

Taking one of the fun snowmobile tours in Iceland is one of the best ways to enjoy the glorious landscapes and nature that the country has to offer. Read this post for our recommendations, tips and advice from our own personal trip before booking your adventure of a lifetime!

When we went to Iceland in November we made the decision to book ourselves onto an ice cave + snowmobile tour whilst we were there. This has got to be the BEST decision we made on our entire trip. Seriously, if you have never been on a snowmobile before then it is well worth the money.

Watch Our Highlights Video Here!

Best Of Snowmobiling In Iceland - Highlights! Mountaineers Of Iceland!

They are so bloody fast and your tour guides won’t hold you back either. There are multiple employees throughout the entire tour so the people at the front can go off as fast as they want and the others can go as leisurely as they want. Everyone wins!

There are so many snowmobile tours in Iceland available, some on their own and some with additional activities included in the tour. I’ve started with only snowmobile tours, but further down you can find multi-activity tours too!

If you are looking to find out what snowmobiling in Iceland is all about then scroll down past the recommended tours for all the information you could ever want! Oh and I highly recommend hiring a car for your stay in Iceland, it’ll save you a tonne of time and money on transport. See our entire guide for hiring a 4×4 in Iceland here.

#1 Glacier Snowmobiling on Langjokull Glacier

This is the cheapest option on my entire list and, in my opinion, your best option if you’re wanting only the snowmobile part of the tour.

Watch This Video For This Exact Tour Here!

Key Information

  • Tour Duration: 4 Hours
  • Pick Up Included: From Gulfoss waterfall
  • Age Suitable For: 6+
  • Need To Take: Driving licence
  • People Per Snowmobile: 2

Click here for more information and prices of this tour

If you have a look around then you’ll come to realise that all of the tour operators are providing roughly the same service – 1 hour’s worth of snowmobiling and around 4-5 hours of your time. Well, this tour is exactly that and is the best value for money.

The pick-up is from Gullfoss waterfall which is part of the famous Golden Circle. Take my advice and see the Golden Circle in the morning and arrive at Gullfoss in time for your tour. This kills two birds with one stone and saves you money as you won’t have to be picked up from Reykjavik, which is around $30 extra per person on the tour. If you want to be picked up from Reykjavik then click here for the same tour but with a pickup.

Perfect For

  • If you want the highest-rated snowmobile tour in Iceland, on the most convenient glacier and for the best price then this is the one for you.
  • Budget travellers. This is the lowest-priced tour on this list.

#2 Snowmobile Tour On Eyjafjallajökull Glacier

If you have already planned a little road trip exploring the southeast coast (which you definitely should) then this is the perfect snowmobile tour in Iceland for you.

  • Tour Duration: 2 Hours
  • Pick Up Included: Yes
  • Age Suitable For: All
  • Need To Take: Licence & walking boots

the views from a glacier whilst on a snowmobile tour Iceland

This tour is a similar price to the Langjokull glacier tour but it has some very unique selling points. Foremost, this glacier is where the huge volcanic eruption happened in 2010 that shut down most of Europe’s air space! I don’t know about you but knowing all that raw power is so close makes it a little more epic.

Secondly, the views from the Eyjafjallajökull glacier are insane. On a clear day, you’ll be able to see the Westman Islands in the south and incredible horizon views of the highlands as well. So, if you’re not planning a trip to the South East then stick with the Langjokull glacier tour. If you are then this is a great option.

  • Any travellers making their way through the South East.
  • People that want to experience views you cannot get elsewhere.

#3 Glacier Rush on Langjökull Glacier

If you’ve been snowmobiling before, want to push yourself or you’re just a straight-up adrenaline junkie then look no further.

  • Tour Duration: 5 Hours
  • Pick Up Included: From Gulfoss Waterfall
  • Age Suitable For: Anyone with a licence
  • Need To Take: Licence & Walking Boots
  • People Per Snowmobile: 1

The Glacier Rush tour offers the quickest and most powerful snowmobiles on offer in the whole of Iceland and the staff don’t hold you back. They will push you to your limits and you will end up travelling further and faster than any of the other tours on this list.

The cost is higher than both of the previous tours, however, these monsters only have one seat. The other tours in this list are for 2 riders and all of the tour operators have an additional cost if you want to have a snowmobile to yourself. There is obviously no additional fee with this tour so, in fact, the cost is not that much more if you don’t want to share!

snowmobile tours iceland

  • Adrenaline junkies
  • People with experience wanting something extra
  • Anyone wanting something more unique and exhilarating.

#4 Snowmobiling Tour On Mýrdalsjökull Glacier

The Mýrdalsjökull glacier is a distance away from Reykjavik down in the southeast of Iceland. However, I strongly suggest you visit the southeast when you’re in Iceland so this might just be the perfect way to complement your trip.

  • Tour Duration: 3 Hours
  • Pick Up Included: No – tour starts here
  • Age Suitable For: 9+
  • People Per Snowmobile: 2 (Can pay a supplement for solo rider)

snowmobile tours iceland

These tours tend to be less busy due to the distance from the tourism centre so this means that you can expect a more peaceful and personal experience. Plus the price is pretty much the same so if you’re down there any way it’s a no brainer!

  • Any travellers making their way through the South East and don’t want to have to go out of their way.

The Best Snowmobile Tours In Iceland With Extra Activities

There is an incredible array of things you can do alongside your snowmobile tour in Iceland. They include pairing it up with an ice-cave visit, Golden Circle tour, Northern Lights show and waterfall chasing.

The south of Iceland is literally packed with incredible scenery and places to discover so if you’re already spending the money on the transport and staff, why not pair it up and make the most out of your trip.

If you are thinking of doing multiple tours then I highly recommend you book a tour with all of the things you want to do in one. This will save you time and money.

#5 Snowmobiling And Golden Circle Tour

This is our top pick for a snowmobiling tour in Iceland and there are plenty of different tours following a similar itinerary.

  • Tour Duration: 10 Hours
  • Pick Up Included: From Reykjavik bus stop
  • Age Suitable For: 6 years old

Click here for more information and availability

Combining snowmobiling and the Golden Circle is the most popular combination of tours and for good reason.

Many of the snowmobile tours in Iceland pick you up from Gullfoss waterfall, which is part of the Golden Circle. Therefore, it doesn’t cost that much more to visit the Golden Circle on the same day.

snowmobile tours iceland

The Golden Circle consists of the Geysir geothermal area, Pingvellir national park and Gullfoss waterfall.

All 3 are a MUST visit on your trip to Iceland so why not do it as part of an epic full-day activity that culminates in the adventure of a lifetime, snowmobiling a glacier.

At the time of writing, this tour was not much more per person than the cheapest solely snowmobile tour so it’s a no brainer if you don’t have your own transportation.

  • People who want to see the Golden Circle and don’t have their own transportation

#6 Snowmobiling, Ice Cave And Hot Spring

This is another amazing snowmobile experience you can get in Iceland. You get to snowmobile, you get to walk into a natural ice cave and you get to bathe in a secluded secret lagoon. What more can you ask for?

  • Tour Duration: 10 hours
  • Pick Up Included: From Reykjavik hotel
  • Age Suitable For: 18+ for driver
  • Need To Take: Licence, boots & swimsuit

A hot spring in iceland after a snowmobile tour in iceland

If you have already planned a trip to the Blue Lagoon (the most famous hot spring in Iceland) then you might want to consider the tour below that only goes to the ice cave.

However, if you haven’t then this lagoon is more secluded and less crowded than the Blue Lagoon.

To be honest with you, even if you have planned to go to the Blue Lagoon I still highly recommend this tour over all of the others. Bathing in a hot spring in Iceland is not something that you should only do once.

Ice cave on a snowmobile tour iceland

  • People looking for a perfect Iceland experience.
  • People who haven’t planned a lagoon visit yet.

#7 Snowmobiling And Ice Cave

This is quite a lot cheaper than the ice cave and hot spring tour above so if you really don’t want to add the hot spring element or you’re on a tight budget then this is perfect.

The ice caves of Iceland really are amazing. People literally have to go out into the glacier at the end of each summer to try to find newly formed ice caves from season to season. This means that every year there will be new and different caves over the glacier.

An Ice cave whilst snowmobiling in Iceland

Inside you get to see the evidence of thousands of years of volcanic activity, shown as lines of black in the ice. I think it’s so cool to be able to see the actual ash from eruptions thousands of years ago right in front of you.

These caves aren’t accessible to everyone either, it takes roughly half an hour of riding through the glacier to get to the entrances, so don’t expect queues of people and photographers ruining your moment.

  • Adventurers that want to experience the natural ice caves of Iceland who are also on a budget.

Where To Stay For Snowmobiling In Iceland

There are a couple of locations discussed in this post but most of you are going to want to be in or around Reykjavik. This will allow you to get to the majority of the snowmobile tours in this post and still be around the other action Iceland has to offer. Have a look at our top picks below or use the map to check out deals now.

Northern Comfort Apartment

You get the entire apartment for a remarkably low price compared to other options in Reykjavik whilst also being in the heart of the city. If you are staying in Reykjavik then I think this may be the best option in the whole city.

Lovely Cabin

This 2-bedroom private chalet is perfect for small groups and still doesn’t break the bank compared to other options in Iceland. When we went to Iceland, we got a small chalet and it really is the best way to experience this beautiful country.

What To Expect On A Snowmobile Tour In Iceland

I had never been snowmobiling before so I really didn’t know what to expect with my snowmobile tour in Iceland.

Firstly you have to actually get to the glacier, which is no small feat! You will probably be loaded into a very large custom-built off-road truck that looks like it wouldn’t be out of place on Mars.

Then you are driven through the mountains, up into the snow. Depending on where you have been picked up, this trip can take anywhere from 1 hour to 2 hours.

When you get to the base camp you will be offloaded and be fitted for all in one winter suits, helmets, goggles and balaclava. This is the reason you must bring good sturdy shoes with you as they will not provide this.

They will also not let you ride if you are wearing something inappropriate. After, you’ll be loaded back into the Mars Rover and driven to the snowmobiles.

You’ll be given a snowmobile between 2 people unless you have paid an additional solo rider fee or your tour specifically states that it is for solo riders only.

The tours are 1 hour long and have a break in the middle so there is an opportunity to swap drivers at the midway point.

You will follow in convoy through the ice, snow and mountains but don’t worry about being slowed down by the person in front.

Before you go everyone will be asked how confident they are with driving and the less confident people will be put at the back.

This benefits everyone as the speed freaks get to zoom around and everyone else gets to have a relaxing time without worrying about someone too close behind them.

After the tour, you will get unchanged and be driven back to the original pick-up point. We actually got hot chocolate and biscuits after our tour so maybe you’ll be as lucky as we were.

Fear Not! Snowmobiling Is For Everyone

If you’ve watched a few videos about snowmobiling in Iceland then you’ll have seen that snowmobiles are big pieces of kit and pack a serious punch. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of you were thinking that maybe snowmobiling in Iceland isn’t for you.

Let me put that theory to bed straight away. In our group, we had 2 people who were really on the fence about the whole idea. My 54-year-old mum and the other Two Tall Traveller, Jade.

Both my mum and Jade are people who look for a bench in theme parks to wait for the people who are queuing for the roller coasters, so it’s safe to say they are not adrenaline junkies.

But this is where snowmobiling and pure thrill-seeking differ greatly. When you get on a roller coaster you have no control over the speed or the intensity and you’re only on it for the thrill.

None of the snowmobile tours in Iceland will make you go faster than you feel comfortable going or make you do something you are not comfortable with.

Yes, you will be in convoy but people who want to go fast will slowly move towards the front and the people who want to sit back and soak in the atmosphere will slowly find themselves closer to the rear. This is by design.

There will be multiple tour guides throughout the convoy who will stay with people who are expecting different things from this experience.

When I got to the halfway point, people were still arriving in dribs and drabs up to 10 minutes later. No one was being told to hurry up and everyone was given the opportunity to drive.

Tips About Riding The Snowmobile

Some of these bad boys go up to 70kmph which is incredibly fast considering the bumpy ride that you’ll be experiencing.

Every time you push the accelerator you’re going to get some serious acceleration. It is, however, very easy to control the speed that you are going at. Don’t worry about losing control or being forced to go too fast.

When we went, Jade didn’t want to drive so she sat behind for the duration of the trip. At first, she wanted to have a steady pace as she was a little nervous, which is completely understandable.

I had never been snowmobiling before but it was very easy, right from the start, to control the snowmobile exactly the way I wanted it.

After a short amount of time, you will really get the hang of it and be able to open up a little across the ice.

However, if you don’t then DO NOT feel obligated to go faster.

We had people on our tour that simply did not want to go above a nice crawl. When we stopped mid-way we had to wait a little longer for the others to catch up but all this meant is that we had more time to mess about in the snow and ice.

The tour guides will not pressure you to go faster so don’t ruin your tour by going faster or slower than you feel comfortable going.

Best Time To Get Snowmobile Tours In Iceland

There are snowmobile tours in Iceland running throughout the year. However, there are considerably more available outside of the summer months.

Don’t worry though as the glaciers are there 365 days of the year!

The main difference in the tours will be the drive up to the snow. In the summer you will have to drive a lot further into the mountains to reach the start point so your tour may be slightly longer than the winter tours.

I think the winter months may have a slight edge over the summer as the views from the top are the whole country covered in a gorgeous white layer of fresh snow.

However, in the summer you can go snowmobiling in the middle of the night during the midnight sun! As always, Iceland manages to amaze whatever season you end up going.

The Best Place To Snowmobile In Iceland

As you can imagine, there are quite a few glaciers in Iceland. Only some of these can be snowmobiled on and some only at certain times of the year.

It all depends on where you are going to be and what you already have planned for your trip. If you’re staying in the capital, book an airport shuttle that will take you directly to the centre. It means that if you arrive in Iceland planning on going directly on a snowmobile tour, you can go straight to your pick-up location from your transfer.

The first two are the best in my opinion but don’t let that put you off the other glaciers because, in reality, they are all epic!

Langjokull is by far the most popular place for snowmobiling tours in Iceland due to its close proximity to both the Golden Circle and Reykjavik, both huge tourist hot spots. 

It is also the second biggest glacier in the whole of Iceland with a thickness of 500m in certain areas. This means that it is also one of the grandest and most awe-inspiring places to snowmobile in Iceland.

Tours will start either from Reykjavik or from Gullfoss waterfall. It is cheaper to start from Gullfoss as the majority of the distance has already been covered by yourself.

Most of the tours charge around an additional $30 or more per person to start from Reykjavik.

Take my advice, hire a vehicle and do a self-drive tour of the Golden Circle in the morning and finish at Gullfoss. Then you can save money by getting to Gullfoss yourself as well as seeing the sights along the way!

You can’t really go wrong with Langjokull glacier for snowmobiling due to the location and the lower price in comparison to the other glaciers.

Vatnajokull

Vatnajokull is the largest glacier in the whole of Europe so I couldn’t leave it off my list entirely. If you are visiting Iceland in summer then this is very close to the top of the list for the best locations as it is only accessible in the summer.

It still doesn’t beat Langjokull in my opinion as you do have to drive quite far into the southeast to get to the starting point of the tour.

However, if you are already planning a trip to Diamond Beach or any of the incredible sights along the south-east then definitely bear Vatnajokull in mind.

The views and experience from Vatnajokull are unforgettable and you would get to snowmobile on Ice that goes up to 1000m deep, which is pretty damn cool.

Myrdaljokul

Another glacier situated in the south of Iceland, Myrdaljokul sits right on top of the infamous Katla volcano. It seems that wherever you decide to go in Iceland, the raw power of its nature follows you even to its most remote places.

If you are planning a trip around the south coast then this is another great option for a snowmobile tour in Iceland. It will be slightly more expensive and a little further to travel from Reykjavik but if standing on top of a volcano (which is due an eruption) gets your blood pumping then this is the place for you.

If you are planning a trip up north, maybe to get away from the tourist centre in the south or to go whale watching in the summer months, then you’re in luck! Akureyri is home to some absolutely fantastic snowmobiling experiences.

They actually differ slightly from what you would experience in the south of Iceland because you won’t be sledging on a glacier.

Instead, you will get to ride out onto the large snow flats which blanket the outskirts of Akureyri. This is an altogether different experience to glacier snowmobiling as you can really pick up some speed in the beautiful soft snow.

It might be far from Reykjavik and away from some of the best attractions but rest assured, Akureyri’s charm and remote beauty will not leave you wanting anymore.

Eyjafjallajökull

If the name sounds familiar then that’s because this is the site of the volcanic eruption that closed significant parts of Europe’s air space in 2010. Don’t let that put you off though as on a clear day you will witness some of the most spectacular views anywhere in Iceland.

If you are planning on travelling throughout the southeast coast of Iceland during your trip then this is definitely a good option for snowmobiling in Iceland. If you will be staying closer to the capital then I recommend spending less money and time and sticking with Langjokull glacier.

Lake Myvatn

This gorgeous lake is in the north of Iceland, relatively closse to the town Akueyri. In the winter months this is a great place to grab a snowmobile tour in Iceland. You won’t be on a glacier but you will have vast open spaces of gorgeous fresh snow to explore.

There are not as many tours available for this area but take a look at this one to see if the location and the price seem better up north.

What To Wear

It gets pretty cold whilst snowmobiling in Iceland so we have compiled a list of products that you’re going to need to take if you want to make the most out of your trip! Take a look and remember, amazon has deals all the time so make sure to go through the links to see the current price.

MOERDENG Women's Mountain Waterproof/Windproof Jacket

If you are thinking of going into colder climates then you have to make sure you have a suitable jacket to go along for the ride. This ski jacket is waterproof and windproof which helps keep out the cold and a fleece lining which helps to keep in the warmth. The jacket is also extremely affordable compared to other brands meaning your comfort is no longer going to cost you an arm and a leg!

CAMEL CROWN Fleece Lined Waterproof/Windproof Pants

People often buy really good gloves, hats, boots, and jackets when they are going into colder climates but neglect the need for a good pair of waterproof/windproof trousers to go along with it. These brilliant fleece-lined trousers will keep you warm, dry, and comfortable for those long days in the freezing cold.

Columbia Hiking Boots

You can spend an insane amount of money on hiking boots if you want (trust me, I have) but, unless you're planning on travelling to the Arctic Circle, you simply don't have to break the bank. These amazingly diverse and adaptable boots by Columbia will handle everything you throw at them, whilst keeping your feet dry, warm, and pain-free!

Fleece Lined Long Johns & Base Layer

If you really feel the cold but already have a decent jacket and insulated trousers , then you have to check out these fleece-lined thermal long johns and top base layer. These will fit under your outer clothes and give a massive increase to your warmth whilst paired with other quality winter wear. A must-have for someone who struggles with the cold.

KINGSBOM -40F° Waterproof & Windproof Thermal Gloves

If you need a pair of no-nonsense, warm, waterproof, and windproof gloves that will work with your touch devices then we highly recommend checking out these gloves. I recommend getting slightly larger than you think as the sizing is on the small size.

HOT FEET Winter Boot Socks

If you're going to be wearing boots, especially in colder climates, then you need to grab yourself a decent set of cold-weather socks. These thermal socks from HOT FEET don't break the bank and will keep your feet warm in some of the coldest weather. You also get 8 pairs!

ICEWEAR Vík Hat

A gorgeous 100% Icelandic wool hand-knitted hat to keep your head warm in the coldest situations. It would make a perfect gift/souvenir for anyone who is travelling to Iceland or has travelled to Iceland and forgotten to pick one up when they were there!

100% Cotton Cable Sweater

Cotton is the way to go to keep you warm on cold nights staring up at the beautiful starry sky, surrounded by ice and snow. This is from Amazon Basics so you're not paying a premium for a famous brand but you're still getting that thick cotton quality.

Classic Ear Warmers

Jade prefers wearing ear muffs because it gives her more options to style her hair whilst also keeping her little ears warm. If that sounds like something you might struggle with then check out these fantastic ear warmers that come in a variety of colours!

What Is A Snowmobile?

So, I come from the south of England where snow settles every 2-3 years. When it settles the entire country stops and people huddle indoors too afraid to venture outside in case you slip and die….

Suffice to say, no one is heading to the garage to whip out a snowmobile and head to the local grocery shop. So if you haven’t ever ridden or even seen a snowmobile before then let me explain.

They look and feel very much like a motorbike on skis. At the rear there are two rubber tracks that push you along and at the front is a pair of skis. Turning the handlebars turns the skis which is how you turn. Unlike a motorbike, they don’t fall over when you stop so don’t worry about falling off.

Some of the more high-end snowmobiles can reach nearly 100mph on snow which is completely insane but you will almost certainly be limited to about 45mph. Don’t be sad though because I reached about 40mph on my first go and going across snow at that speed feels properly mental. I think I reached that speed for about 3 seconds before Jade was frantically hitting me on the back asking me to slow down.

A Brief History Of Snowmobiling And Icelandic Culture

As you can imagine from the land of ice, snowmobiling is built right into their culture. Many Icelanders have snowmobiles just like me and you have bikes in the shed. This might seem alien to us but heading out into the ice and snowfields is a normal weekend activity for so many across the island.

Who do they have to thank for this pretty damn cool hobby? The modern design is most closely attributed to Joseph-Armand Bombardier, a French-Canadian inventor who wanted to make it easier for families in remote areas to get around.

The first snowmobiles were hulking great beasts capable of transporting up to 7 people. This just wasn’t necessary for the vast majority of practical applications so 20 years later Joseph-Armand helped develop the much more sleek and dependable 2 seater variant that is so popular today.

Jump forward in time to the 21st century and it isn’t just adrenaline junkie locals or wanderlust searching travellers who have Joseph-Armand to thank. Snowmobiles are still used the world over in search and rescue teams and scientific expeditions in some of the most remote and inhospitable places on the planet.

Where To Stay In Reykjavik

  • An incredible option for couples if you want to treat yourself is Tower Suites Reykjavík – you won’t regret it!
