Giới thiệu sản phẩm

Join a full-day expedition to the Katla Glacier and become a Citizen Scientist. Trek along the bottom edges of the glacier, mapping the current rate of recession, and learn about the glacier's history and the impact of climate change on this ever-changing environment.

Begin your journey with a scenic drive from the town of Vik. Upon reaching the glacier's edge, receive a comprehensive safety briefing and an introduction to glacier mapping techniques. Equipped with specialized gear, including crampons, helmets, and ice axes, you'll be ready to go.

Trek along the bottom edges of the glacier in order to map the current rate of recession. Learn about the glacier's history, its current state, and the impact of climate change on this ever-changing environment. Engage in the scientific process by participating in actual scientific research by cultivating data researchers need.

Use advanced GPS equipment to measure the glacier's movement and collect other vital data. Your contributions will aid ongoing research and help monitor the health of this vital ecosystem. Enjoy a packed lunch surrounded by panoramic views of the surrounding picturesque mountains and the vast expanse of ice.

Throughout the expedition, your guide will provide insights into the geological significance of Katla Glacier and the Geopark overall, explaining how the areas are all interconnected. After completing the glacier mapping journey, make your way back to the 4x4 for an exciting ride back out of the highlands.

Walk away with a formal certificate proving you contributed to something bigger. Plus, your name will be published in a report on Katla Geopark's website.
