🐾 A True Arctic Expedition
This is a long and varied ride through Svalbard’s incredible wilderness. You’ll cross wide open valleys, pass glaciers, and travel along the sea ice in search of wildlife and untouched nature.
🐻 Polar Bear Territory
The east coast is the best place on the main island of Spitsbergen to spot polar bears. While we can’t guarantee a sighting, we often see tracks – and sometimes the animals themselves – from a safe distance.
❄️ Endless Views and Deep Silence
Far from settlements and noise, the east coast offers some of the most dramatic scenery in the archipelago. It’s the perfect place to feel the scale and solitude of the High Arctic.
We had a great trip and a memorable experience.
We spotted 2 polar bears on the ice (using binoculars), and passed several polar bear tracks.
The place it’s so unique. It’s wild and you feel it.
