This trip will take us, in the Arctic Ocean, to discover Trollaskagi, the wild Troll Peninsula in northern Iceland, in the Akureyri region.
An extraordinary land, made up of vast mountain areas with very unique geometry, highly interesting for ski mountaineering lovers: the altitudes vary from 800 to 1400 meters, the average difficulties are BS level on the classic scale with BSA level variations and exciting couloirs for steep ski lovers. In short, descents for all tastes and all levels…
It will be an unforgettable experience because ski touring in Iceland means magic, surreal atmospheres and descents plunging down on beautiful fjords with unpronounceable names…
We are ready, are you?
