At Nordur, the safety and well-being of our adventurers are paramount. We are committed to providing not only a thrilling experience but also a secure one.

Our expert local guides are highly trained and experienced in wilderness navigation, emergency first aid, and risk assessment. They possess extensive knowledge of the local terrain and weather patterns, which allows them to make informed decisions on-the-go.

Before we start the expedition, you’ll be given a thorough briefing covering safety protocols, route information and emergency procedures.

We only use the very best equipment that meets international safety standards. This includes high-quality packrafts, personal location devices, GPS devices and communication tools like walkie-talkies. Your guide will go through every piece of equipment in detail with you during the expedition. 

All of our expeditions are done in small groups. Not only does this give you a more personal experience, it enhances our ability to monitor and maintain safety throughout the expedition. We’re also prepared for any citation that might arise. Our guides carry satellite phones and all routes are planned with evacuation points, in case a rapid departure from the wilderness is needed.
