✨ everything you need to know about the Katla Ice Cave ✨ 👉 Most tours leave from the town of Vik in south Iceland 👉 it’s ~ a 3 hour experience and costs 27.900 ISK or 211 USD per person. 👉 you get to ride in a “super Jeep” to access the ice cave and see a Star Wars filming location! 👉 because of the planks pictured on the video we do not recommend this experience if you have a fear of heights. 👉 be sure to dress WARMLY but glove liners are preferred instead of large winger gloves because it’s better for gripping the ropes on the planks. 👉 Katla is the ONLY ice cave in Iceland that can be visited in the summer. 👉 ice caves are constantly changing. Our guide said they constantly monitor the conditions of the cave, but personally we did feel a little *uneasy* being in the cave, but we were reassured it was safe. 👉 you are given all of the necessary equipment upon arrival - helmet and crampons. 👉 the experience is listed as “easy to moderate” but we’d personally rate it more difficult. Especially if you have young children and aren’t sure in your physical capabilities, we’d consider skipping. . . . . #visiticeland #icelandtravel #katlaicecave #icecave #bucketlistadventures #travelbucketlist #travelmore #travelgirlsofficial #girlstraveler #adventuretravel #adventuregirl #vikiceland #icelandnature #exploreiceland
