Itinerary
Through renting a snowmobile from our tour operating partner, you have the opportunity to experience Svalbard over a larger area. You get the opportunity to drive over frozen fjords, large glaciers and narrow valleys where reindeer often graze. There are many different routes with snowmobiles, so you have the opportunity to experience a variety of landscapes and wildlife. If you're very lucky, you might catch a glimpse of the "King of the Arctic" - the polar bear - as it strolls around in search of food.
Please note that we keep significant distance from wildlife and that we do not seek them out. When it comes to polar bears, it is important to note that polar bears are fully protected on Svalbard, and these regulations prohibit seeking them out in any way.
