EXPEDITION OVERVIEW
Join Ice Axe Expeditions for a 7-day Fat Tire Bike Tour through the stunning valleys and vistas of Svalbard, Norway. Bike along glaciers, mountain peaks and maybe even encounter some amazing wildlife like reindeer, arctic fox, and polar bear. The sun shines for over 16 hours each day as the island approaches the Midnight Sun and temperatures will be around -20 c -0 c. This trip will venture from the Northernmost town in the world, Longyearbyen, and adventure North towards Tempelfjorden (pictured with the sunset).
Join a few intrepid adventurers on a unique trip offering just a few hundred miles from the North Pole. Seven national parks and twenty-three nature reserves cover two-thirds of the archipelago, protecting the largely untouched, yet fragile, natural environment. Svalbard has extensive twilights and the Northernmost town in the world, Longyearbyen, sees the first and last day of polar night having seven and a half hours of twilight, whereas the perpetual light lasts for two weeks longer than the midnight sun.
Your guides have extensive experience on Svalbard and have traveled on several expeditions, both inland towards the Northern tip and around both the West and East coasts. This Fat Tire Bike tour will also have snowmobile support.
