About the experience

A blue ice adventure for the whole family!

One of our experienced guides will meet you at the parking by the intersection from road E39 to FV453 in Stardalen Valley. Haugabreen Glacier is an accessible glacier in Southern Norway and can be enjoyed by both the younger and older family members. It lays in the western part of the Jostedalsbreen Glacier Nationalpark not far from the E39 (the Western Norway Highway). While hiking to the glacier your guide will tell you how the glacier has formed the landscape we live in and how the locals have traditionally used the glacier. You should have some experience with trail hiking and a minimum of physical condition for this hike.

We adapt each encounter with the glistening blue ice crystals according to the group’s ambitions and abilities. The goal is to give you an experience you will never forget!
