Prince Harry is getting his hike on!

The young royal took part in a trek along the Langjökull Glacier in Iceland with none other than The Wire star Dominic West.

Harry lead the U.K. team, while Dominic took the helm for the Commonwealth Team as they prepped for Walking With the Wounded Antarctic Challenge.

The prince, actor, and their respective teams faced ridiculously cold temperatures throughout their journey—we're talking well below zero degrees Fahrenheit.

The prep hike, which occurred at the end of July, was a ten-hour challenge on skis across one of the country's biggest glaciers.

Harry and crew were gearing up for the real expedition, which will take place in November. It's then that the men will face a 208-mile walk (if you can call it that) across the Antarctic.

The group met varied weather conditions throughout the challenge—from wet snow and slush to icy, hard snow towards the end of their trip.

From his military days in Afghanistan to his charity challenge in Antarctica, this prince sure knows how to handle all types of terrain!
