SVALBARD: Hiking in the Arctic city of Longyearbyen, Spitsbergen
Svalbard (also known as Spitsbergen) is an archipelago in the arctic ocean. We visited this amazing place during our Scandinavian backpacking trip in the fall of 2016. We stayed in Longyearbyen, the northernmost city in the world! We hiked Sarkofagen and the longyearbeen glacier.

Svalbard Crossing Arctic Training
Crossing Svalbard in the far north of our amazing planet is home to polar bears, frozen landscape and is one of the most unique adventure destinations on the planet. Our itinerary covers specific Polar training, Polar navigation, defense against Polar bears and sea ice travel. Achieving this crossing in the Arctic will leave you wanting more remote and challenging landscapes like Greenland or Antarctica. This journey to the north reaches of the planet, leads you into a world of cold.
Crossing Svalbard is achieved on ski’s. We will be crossing Svalbard pulling all our equipment in bulks, setting in camps on the ancient ice that cover the whole Island. To get the most out of our Svalbard crossing trip, we recommend physical training 5 times a week and some previous Nordic skiing is necessary and important. Running, walking in the mountains, walking with a backpack and dragging tires is the best way to prepare for this trip.

Whole Hurtigruten MS Spitsbergen cruise review: The Ultimate Svalbard Expedition (HD) - Polar Bears!
Video review of the Hurtigruten Expedition Cruise „The ultimate Svalbard Expedition“ with Hurtigruten MS Spitsbergen in July 2018.
In this video you’ll see the daily program onboard of MS Spitsbergen during our expedition cruise around Svalbard. See what kind of activities they offer. Enjoy beautiful pictures of the nature and landscape of Svalbard as well as footage of polar bear families. Unfortunately the polar bears were very far away (between 800 - 1500 meters). Therefore please excuse the picture noise in the video.
You’ll also see all ship areas like restaurant, explorer lounge, bar, jacuzzi, sauna, fitness room, shop, the outdoor explorer deck, the bridge and our room. We had a „O2 Polar Outside Cabin“.

Svalbard hike interrupted by nearby Polar Bear
August 19th, 2012. A hike on the arctic island of Edgeøya, from the Lindblad/Nat Geo Explorer boat, was aborted when a Polar Bear approached the landing site after the hiking groups were already dispersed. The shots were fired from a flare pistol to dissuade the bear. That bear is not seen on this video, although I included one at the end.
Svalbard and above the Arctic Circle. Part 1
Circumnavigating the archipelago of Svalbard. We see polar bears, walruses, whales, reindeer and 1000's of sea birds. We go as far north at 82°. Early July 2013 temperatures are in the low to upper 30's F.
How to dress in Svalbard - Wintertime
During the winter months (October to May), the normal temperature is -30 – -11 degrees ˚C. Bring your warmest clothes! You will need windproof outerwear, several layers of wool and/or fleece. Also remember to wear warm winter boots (with space for two pairs of woollen socks) and to keep your hands, face and head warm with warm and windproof mittens/gloves, a balaclava and a warm, windproof hat. A reflective vest can also be useful, as it gets very dark. You should bring extra warm clothes to be prepared for the extreme weather conditions.
We also recommend bringing spikes, as the road might be icy.
