Once inside, you will see a variety of stunning ice sculptures including glacial horns, frozen waterfalls, and beautiful blue light filtering through from above.

All of these amazing ice caves can be visited by anyone on a guided day trip from Reykjavik and guided tours include an experienced local guide who will ensure that you have a great time and provide interesting information about the ice caves and other attractions in the area.

Ice Caves in Iceland

Some ice caves are crystal blue, since they have no debris around them. But others have old volcanic ash around them. Iceland is surrounded by volcanoes, especially on the western part of the country. When volcanoes erupt, volcanic ash lands all over the ice. This therefore makes some ice caves to be covered with volcanic ash.
