About Arctic Heli Skiing
My name is Jökull Bergmann and I am the founder and owner of Arctic Heli Skiing. As Iceland's first UIAGM-IFMGA certified mountain guide it is my pleasure to assist you in making your heli skiing adventure come true, be it in Iceland, Greenland or around the globe. Arctic Heli Skiing is family owned and operated with a rich pioneering history and strong roots on the Troll Peninsula where we base out of my ancestral home, Klængshóll Lodge. With me, my family and our very dedicated team members you will feel right at home and amongst friends.
At Arctic Heli Skiing we specialize in custom made exploratory Helicopter skiing adventures in Iceland and Greenland where we invite you to join us for a grand adventure of first descents, Northern Lights and skiing all the way down to the ocean, basking in the rays of the midnight sun. We operate on the Troll Peninsula in Northern Iceland and on the East Coast of Greenland. With over 20 years of experience guiding ski touring groups in the area in 2008 we extended our program to Heli Skiing, becoming the first heli ski operation in Iceland.
The potential for world class down hill skiing here is mind blowing, with vertical descents of up to 1500m or almost 5000ft. Our vast terrain covers more than 4000 square kilometers, or 1500 square miles of breathtaking Arctic mountains with terrain that suits every skiers ability be it extreme couloirs or wide open glaciers. Our position just below the Arctic Circle with the mountains rising straight out of the sea allows for a skiing experience of a lifetime, skiing from summit to sea shore.
Our season starts mid February when we typically experience powder snow conditions, and continues until the end of June with generally excellent corn skiing. The fact that the Troll Peninsula is surrounded by the Arctic Ocean makes for incredible opportunities for skiing right down to the ocean on stable coastal snowpack but also adds the excitement of Arctic weather and conditions. Throw in a mix of Northern lights, midnight sun, volcanic activity, hot springs, lava fields and a unique Viking culture and you will find that Iceland is a true adventure skiing destination.
As Iceland's premier heli ski operation we guarantee you that your safety and pleasure is our highest priority.
I look forward to seeing you in the mountains.
