Itinerary
The arctic winter landscape and wildlife have always had a magical attraction for humans. With its 61,000 square kilometers, Svalbard offers enormous areas of untouched arctic nature.
Here it is the arctic fox, the Svalbard reindeer, the seals and the polar bear that rule. If we as humans are to get a taste of this arctic wilderness, snowmobiles and sufficient time will be of great help.
During the three days our Wildlife Safari lasts, we will have enough time to get the feeling of being part of this magnificent arctic nature. We will also have good opportunities to experience polar bear country on the east coast of the island of Spitsbergen.
Our experienced and locally known guides will arrange for this to be an experience of a lifetime. Both through the dissemination of local history, nature experiences and not least the Arctic wildlife.
Accommodation is done in the trapper's way - cramped but pleasant, in our cabin (11m2) in the heart of Fulmardalen, 25 km from the East Coast.
