There are thousands of mountains in Svalbard to explore. The mountains are normally around 700 – 1000 m high. With that exclusivity, it means that we get to have the mountain to ourselves. Together with you and your group, the guide makes a decision on the destination based on weather conditions, snow and avalanche conditions and their experience. This way we can adapt the experience optimally for you.
Some trips start right in the backyard and we can drive to the starting point. These tours are great and suitable for beginners as well as experienced.
If you choose a trip with a snowmobile as transport, we drive the snowmobile out to the foot of the mountain. You do not need previous experience with snowmobiles, but you must have a driving license for a car with you. If you are unsure about snowmobiling, you can be a passenger.
The guide meets you at the hotel in the morning and reviews the weather, road and plan for the day with you. Then a fantastic experience awaits out in Svalbard’s wilderness. The tour’s time frame can vary based on your wishes and agreement with the guide.
On this trip, you do not need to have much experience with top hiking, but you must be in normal good physical shape.
Tours are available from 15 February to 15 May.
Minimum 1 guests, maximum 6.
