What to expect
The West Glacial River is a scenic stretch of consistent, intermediate whitewater in northern Iceland, perfect for families, intermediate kayakers, or packrafters. The river flows through an open valley with excellent views of the surrounding mountains and horses in nearby fields, before entering a steep canyon with stunning scenery and fun rapids. The river is suitable for both beginners and experts, and there are opportunities to stop and jump off cliffs for those who are willing. The area is also known for its geothermal activity, with steaming hot springs visible on the river bank. The West Glacial River is a great place to visit for those looking for an exciting and adventurous experience in a beautiful natural setting
