We have several more locations to choose from. An extreme tour can be the south face of Miðfellstindur 1430 meters in Skaftafell for example, but only for 1 or 2 super strong skiers.
You have to bring your skiing gear and avalanche gear and good mountaineering clothing and backpack. If we need more technical gear like crampons, ice axe, climbing harness, we can rent it to you. We also have couple of sets of avalanche gear to rent.
