Reason for Winter Travel to Iceland

Travelers mostly shy away from land of ice and fire during winter season, but Iceland in the coldest season is not only tolerable but it also veritable wonderland. Mostly people prefer to plan their Iceland tour in summer, when days are comparatively longer and weather allows them for leisurely hikes. However, winter travel to Iceland can be memorable and also with little crowd.

When you will stand at the black sand beach of the Vik where everything else in the surrounding area will be covered by snow will give you a feeling of an era of black and white movie or an another world. Iceland always appears like a magical land, but the colorful rows of the homes rising up from the blanket of completely white and frozen waterfall can just be seen in off tourist season. The crisp and clear winter nights are the best time to catch the beauty of Northern Lights.

Iceland is also a home of glaciers, which covers approximately 10% of this beautiful island that you can explore at any time throughout the year. However, the water that runs through the caves freezes only in the winter season and seems like breathtaking phenomena of nature mainly at Crystal Caves. The two most famous glaciers in ice caves and popular attraction of winter travel to Iceland are Langjokull and Vatnajokull.

The other benefit that you get on your winter trip to Iceland or Reykjavik is the drop in price on travelling in the winter season. Sometimes the price on travelling drops to one-third of the cost in summer. The price for the booking in guesthouse of Reykjavik also drops as compare to summer because of high demand.
