It has been said that all a company
is, is it's people and in no business is that as much of a fact as in the business of mountain guiding. Our guides come from all over the world and are all personal friends of Jökull Bergmann
the founder of Bergmenn Mountain Guides, friends that have shared many sunny days in the mountains as well as challenging and dangerous situations. That is how we know for a fact that they are among
the best in the industry.

He has brought this wealth of diverse experience to Iceland and the Arctic North where he has to his name over a hundred first ascents and descents in Iceland and Greenland. JB's love of the mountains grew from an early age working as a shepherd on his grandparent's farm on the Troll Peninsula in Northern Iceland or maybe it had something to do with his name which in English would translate directly to Glacier Mountainman.
