Visit Iceland in Winter To Capture Some Of The Worlds Most Magnificent Frozen Scenery Including The Aurora Borealis Iceland is even ever more spectacular during the winter months offering an abundance of frozen waterfalls, frozen beaches covered in icebergs and snow covered volcano’s and mountains which give the perfect photogenic opportunities for any keen photographer. The real highlight of the Iceland tour will be the Aurora Borealis. Starting at Snaefellsnes on the West Coast of Iceland, the first three days will be based in Grundarfordur, which is the perfect place to photograph the whole peninsular, including the famous Kirkjufell mountain, This magnificent mountain is as mystical and interesting as its unique wizard hat shape. Arguably the climax of the tour has to be the Aurora Borealis during the evenings with clear skies. The tour then makes its way to Vik, staying near Skogafoss, the famously vast Icelandic waterfall. Exploring the coastline and cliff tops, this will give the group access to the prehistoric sea stacks of Vik and other diverse frozen landscapes. This piece of coastline offers superb opportunities to capture aurora in top locations. The final leg of the tour will be based near Jokulsarlon. The tour will spend a couple of days photographing the iconic Lagoon iceberg with a truly remarkable landscape, situated just as few minute from the base. From base the team will enjoy some spectacular views of the Vatnaiokull Glacier, icebergs in the lagoon and the black volcanic beach covered in icebergs like diamonds providing countless photogenic opportunities.
