1 Night East Coast Adventure: Snowmobile and Cabin Escape - Svalbard Wildlife Expeditions

About

Experience a truly unique Arctic snowmobile adventure! In small groups of no more than six, we take you to the east coast of Svalbard – known for its blue icebergs, majestic glaciers, and magical sea ice. Both seals and polar bears live on the ice, and if we’re lucky, we might spot one of these magnificent animals from a safe distance. This tour is about more than just reaching a destination; the journey itself – driving a snowmobile through spectacular landscapes – is an experience of a lifetime. We stay overnight in our own wilderness cabin, “Fulmarhytta,” bringing us close to nature and providing the perfect starting point for the next day’s adventure.

Program:
Day 1:
The adventure begins in the evening as we set out on snowmobiles, leaving Longyearbyen’s lights behind and heading into the wilderness. This first stretch is around 60-70 km – an ideal start to get comfortable on the snowmobile and enjoy the freedom of the Arctic. At “Fulmarhytta,” we enjoy a hearty meal before settling in for the night.

Day 2:
After breakfast, we set off towards the untouched east coast. As one of the first groups to arrive, you’ll have the chance to explore in peace and marvel at the frozen landscape, so different from the area around Longyearbyen. After a lunch in spectacular surroundings, we begin the journey back to town.
