After being fitted out with glacier boots at the company office, a 10 minute bus ride takes you to within 2½ kilometres (2 miles) of the glacier.

The trip proceeds on to the terminal face of the glacier for app. 2 hours (conditions permitting).

The terrain can look daunting but be assured, the pre-formed accessways make it achievable for most agile people. Hundreds of sprightly seniors and toddlers in backpacks have enjoyed the experience.

The huge effort our guides put into creating extensive trails along with the Ice TalonzTM on your feet makes this different from others available. Travel further, see more - at ease and in comfort.
