Heli Skiing In The Arctic In Iceland

Heli skiing involves taking a helicopter ride to the back country where there are no ski lifts and skiing virgin snow that quite possibly has never seen a pair of skis go over it. One fantastic heli skiing adventure is in Iceland.  A helicopter takes you up to a peak where there are 4500 foot descents suitable for advanced skiers.

Iceland has a lot to offer in the way of tourist attractions. Far from being a barren frozen land it is an interesting landscape that features hundreds of hot springs, several large spa pools, rugged scenery and friendly people. Most Icelanders speak English.

For a truly unique experience you might consider heli skiing in Iceland. Best times are in the fall to winter, though there is plenty of snow most of the year.

Here is a YouTube video of heli skiing in Iceland.
