Created by troll’s hands
Crafted by the hands of trolls themselves, Summit Heliskiing operates in the heart of Iceland’s untamed wilderness, nestled at the tip of the awe-inspiring Troll Peninsula. This rugged land, nameless until the 19th century, now carries a moniker steeped in the rich tapestry of Nordic mythology. Legend whispers of an enraged troll, who shaped the tumultuous landscape with raw passion, molding its bedrock into a symphony of landmasses and ice.
Amidst the jagged ridges, fertile valleys weave a tapestry of vibrant greens in summer, transforming into a soft, snowy wonderland come winter’s embrace. Nestled within one of these valleys lies our hub, Sóti Lodge, offering a cozy retreat with a panoramic vista that stretches to the icy expanse of the Arctic Ocean in the North.
Created by nature
But the true beauty of Troll Peninsula lies in the hands of nature herself. Millennia of ice ages have sculpted the land with the patient hand of time. Glaciers, like ancient architects, have carved valleys and slopes from volcanic mountains, shaping the very essence of this primal landscape. As the glaciers receded some 10,000 years ago, they unveiled a spectacle. The mountains rose majestically from the sea, bestowing upon us the Alpine vistas that cascade into the frigid embrace of the Arctic Ocean.
