If you’re visiting Iceland, one of the coolest experiences you can have is hiking on a glacier! We did a 5 hour glacier adventure as part of our 7 day Iceland itinerary, and the landscape we observed hiking on the glacier was absolutely breathtaking!
Here’s everything you need to know about hiking the Falljökul Glacier in Iceland, so that you can have the best adventure in the epically cool Vatnajökull National Park.
The largest glacier in Europe is an impressive natural phenomenon. Below unusual shapes of the ice there are hidden ice caves and Iceland’s tallest mountain – Hvannadalshnjúkur. Vatnajokull glacier hike is a magical experience that cannot be missed when visiting Iceland.
Admiring different textures and shades of the ice is really amazing. Hiking next to the ice walls is never the same due to the variety of glacier’s shapes. This wonderful experience is ideal for those who are looking for an unforgettable adventure in the land of the ice and fire.
If you want to try hiking in Poland, you will not be disappointed! This country in central Europe has it all – rocky Tatra mountains, mild hills in the Beskids as well as long-distance trails. The longest one is called Main Beskid Trail (Główny Szlak Beskidzki) and runs for almost 500 km along the southern border of the country.
I have had it on my bucket list for a long time, but first I decided to try its smaller version– The Small Beskid Trail.
It doesn’t take long after arriving in Portugal to realize that this is a food country. We knew a bit of this going in, but to be honest the sheer scale of Portugal’s vibrant food scene required us to visit to fully comprehend it. There is reading that it is a food country, and then there is experiencing it for yourself.
From the seafood dishes along the coast to the rich meat-centric meals inland, the vibrant wine country, and some pretty stellar national dishes, we found ourselves gorging and drinking copiously every chance we got.
While it is entirely possible to visit Portugal and never have the same meal twice during an extended visit, in this one we thought we would share a few of the highlights that you absolutely cannot miss (and may want to consider eating many times over)!
