Take the trail less travelled with this unique trip in a specially adapted, all-terrain snowcat. You’ll be brought out onto the mighty Longyear Glacier itself. Here, you’ll strap on ice spikes and a headtorch to head right into its meltwater channels, admiring the spectacular formations as your expert guide leads you through the meandering channel. The return leg is just as scenic.
