We welcome you in Longyearbyen!

We will drive along the coastline along a dirt road where we are on the lookout for Beluga's and Walruses in the fjords, before we will park our car and start our short hike through the valley of Bjørndalen. In this valley we will look for the Svalbard Reindeer, the Arctic Fox and many birds.
