Sleipnir's Tours Fleet

Traversing the vast glaciers of Iceland requires a truly exceptional vehicle. Even large and powerful off-road cars could easily be swallowed by the deep snow which has covered this land for centuries.


Sleipnir Trucks are specifically designed to withstand the harsh conditions on the glacier. With its 8 human-sized wheels and 800 horsepower engine Sleipnir can take its passengers further than any other vehicle of this type in Iceland. Trucks are capable to cross glacier crevasses measuring up to three meters. 

Safety

Sometimes bigger does mean better; Sleipnir's enormous wheels size and engine power significantly decrease the chances of getting stuck in the snow.


Comfort

Another benefit of the size of Sleipnir Trucks is the smoothness of the riding experience. Passengers can barely feel the bumps.


Economy

The 15 meters long and more than 3 meters wide Truck allowed us to place comfortably 47 individual, airplane-like seats in the vehicle which helps to lower the cost of individual tickets.

"An illustration of Odin riding Sleipnir from an 18th-century Icelandic manuscript."

The 8-wheel Sleipnir Trucks take adventure seekers on the mythical journey to roam on the Icelandic glaciers.


Sleipnir was the horse of Odin, the God of Magic and the central God in Nordic mythology, often described as the best of all horses.


It had 8 legs like Sleipnir Trucks with 8 wheels. Sleipnir's horse could ride the mountains and the sky. We can't fly (yet) but we traverse the unspoiled raw terrain of the Icelandic glaciers and mountains.
