JOIN US EXPLORING THE GLACIER, INSIDE AND OUT!

The Moulin & Ice Climbing Tour is the perfect way to get into climbing while exploring the glacier like never before. Our aim for the day is to teach you the basics of climbing on ice and then lower you into a moulin (waterhole/cave), or crevasse in the glacier, for an exciting blue-ice glacier adventure.

We have scouted four different glaciers in the Jostedalsbreen National Park to find the best location for your tour, so we are sure to have great scenery, crevasses, moulins (water holes) and walls of ice for the day’s fun. The trip is for four people maximum per guide, so you can maximise your time on (and in) the ice.

As with all the Icetroll trips we offer, it is not necessary to be an athlete for this tour, you should just have an interest in trying a new activity and taking your chance to get into the glacier more than you ever could on a day tour elsewhere. Beginners are more than welcome, as are children (please call us BEFORE booking children, so we can arrange the correct tour for you). With our experienced, qualified guides, you are certain to get THE blue-ice glacier experience.

If you have an interest in this, just ask us and we can chat about your options. We have all the ice climbing gear, so all you need to bring is the usual outdoor clothing for your trip (including waterproof clothing, sunglasses, and gloves! Check the drop-down list to the right for a complete list of what to bring).

We can’t wait to see you out on the ice! Book your tour today.

You need to tell us you are on a bus BEFORE YOU BOOK if you want us to wait for you and take you in our vehicle to the lake.
If you are on public transport (bus) we can wait for the Glacier Bus to arrive, but recommend you stay in Jostedal after the tour, so we don’t rush back for the bus that leaves Jostedal in the afternoon! If you miss any bus connections, we have no responsibility for this or consequent transport you require (we will try to help you, but this is not our job – our trips often run later than advertised, there is a lot of nature to enjoy!).
