Conquer the ice wall
The giant ice wall was incredibly difficult to conquer in the movie; the characters used advanced equipment to overcome it. Now, you can use similar equipment to climb the real ice walls in Alberta, Canada.

In winter, climbers flock to this vast, frigid plateau and the Weeping Ice Wall in Banff National Park. While you won't face as many obstacles as in the movies, your efforts after the conquest will be rewarded with victory torches!
Camping in remote areas
Although the royal family in King's Landing lives in wealth and splendor, not everyone in the Seven Kingdoms lives in luxury. Many characters in the series endure nights of wandering as danger constantly threatens them. Bran Stark, Hodor, and Meera Reed sleep under the stars, Jon Snow and Ygritte traverse camps before reaching Black Castle.

To experience the thrill of survival and the beauty of the natural world for yourself, come to Iceland. You should abide by the rules and pay attention to safety. Embrace the adventurous spirit of the program and participate in camping in one of Iceland's moss-covered lava fields or towering waterfalls – it's a fun idea.
Earned the title of Horselord
In the film, the Dothraki character gives new meaning to the phrase "Ride or Die," often used for horseback riding across the Mongolian steppes. Situated between Russia and China, Mongolia is made up of towering mountains in the northwest, the vast Gobi Desert in the south, and expansive, wild steppes.

Sailing in the Mediterranean
To experience your own legendary journey on a stunning coastline, just like the characters in the movies, sail along the Mediterranean coast on a sailboat.
