Iceland's #1 Grade 4 Rafting – Glacial Canyon & Drysuits
About this experience
The East Glacial River (Austari Jökulsá) is Iceland's signature Grade 4+ rafting trip – 18 km of big, powerful rapids born under the Hofsjökull glacier, running through a deep basalt canyon in North Iceland's highlands. No roads, no crowds, no phone signal. Just you, your crew, and the river. You don't need rafting experience, just decent fitness and the will to paddle hard. Every trip runs with professional safety kayakers alongside the rafts, guided by an internationally certified team with decades on this river. You get a full safety briefing, a premium DRYSUIT, and all the gear to stay warm in glacial water. Cold river, warm rafters. Rated one of Iceland's top adventure experiences and a TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice winner. If you do one adrenaline activity in Iceland, do this one.
