SVALBARD – BEYOND EVERY HUMAN BORDER: 80°N
ON THE TRAIL OF THE HOT AIR BALLOON ITALIA AND THE GREAT POLAR EXPLORERS
Imagine a land at the e...
THE REAL WINTER EXPEDITION
Have you ever imagined reaching the northernmost human settlement in the world?
We’ll take you out of your comfort zone and beyond your limits to give you the experience of a lifetime: four intense days in Longyearbyen exploring the Arctic desert.
BEYOND YOUR LIMITS!
Svalbard is a unique and harsh place—challenging in the endless light of summer and even more severe in winter. Yet it’s a land that will steal your heart.
Join us for a truly intense and unforgettable experience in Longyearbyen.
Beyond the 76th parallel north, inside the Arctic Circle, lies a magical land inhabited by extraordinary wildlife, where the light shifts through pastel shades from turquoise to pink, and the absence of night creates dreamlike scenery.
During our Arctic expedition, you’ll enjoy two snowmobile excursions and a cruise to the most famous ghost town in the Arctic: Pyramiden. And with some luck, we may even spot the King of the Arctic—the polar bear.
Our snowmobile tour will also bring you close to Arctic wildlife and historic settlements such as Barentsburg.
An exclusive guide is provided for this special departure.
Why Explore Svalbard by Snowmobile?
Because it’s the only way to reach the true wilderness. Snowmobiles take you deep into Svalbard’s untouched interior — far beyond any road, where the only traces of life might be fox tracks or the distant silhouette of a polar bear. It’s fast, thrilling, and unexpectedly meditative: just you, your machine, the cold air, and endless Arctic horizons.

With FRAMTours, you’ll be guided by experienced Arctic experts who combine safety, navigation skills, and storytelling. Every tour begins with a full briefing and gear check, and your guide will lead you across varied terrain with satellite communication and survival equipment always at hand.
You’ll journey through frozen valleys, sparkling glaciers, icy plateaus, and deep into Svalbard’s National Parks, stopping along the way at breathtaking viewpoints and historic sites like abandoned Soviet mining towns or traditional trapper cabins. Keep your eyes open, as there are opportunities to see Arctic foxes, reindeer, ptarmigan, and sometimes even polar bears, always from a safe distance and with wildlife ethics in mind.
Whether crossing frozen fjords or sharing a warm drink in a remote hut, this tour offers a true Arctic adventure — far from the noise and completely immersed in the wild beauty of the North.
