Located in the Northern part of Iceland the Troll peninsula is a ski touring paradise. The mountains raise straight from the sea and many of them are around 1200m+, the highest one is Kerlinggarfjöll (1538m). Dark blue fjords and white mountains make for quite a contrast and the view gets better and better the higher we climb.

Middle of April is when the winter storms have passed and spring arrives slowly to the Troll peninsula. This is also the prime time for ski touring in the north of Iceland. It hardly gets dark at night and the temperatures stay the same during the day. This makes often for perfect spring skiing conditions that time of year.
