Langjökull Glacier Ice Tunnel
Langjökull is Iceland's second-largest glacier and home to the Into the Glacier experience — the world's largest man-made ice cave tunnel system, drilled 500 m into the heart of the glacier at a depth of up to 45 m. The tunnels include exhibition rooms, ice chapels and catwalks over crevasses within the living glacier. Modified monster trucks (lovingly called 'Súkkulaðisar') transport visitors across the glacier surface. The ice tunnel gives visitors a unique inside-the-glacier experience.
