About the activity

Embark upon an unforgettable Arctic adventure on this 3.5-hour snowmobiling excursion in Svalbard from Longyearbyen! Welcoming beginners and explorers ages 8 and up.

The legendary archipelago of Svalbard is located in the Arctic Ocean between Norway and the North Pole. Renowned for its Polar climate, pristine Arctic wilderness, awe-inspiring mountains and glaciers as well as its biodiversity, Svalbard is a premier travel destination for those seeking an authentic Arctic experience!

Upon arrival at the base, you and your group (a maximum of 30 participants) will be greeted by your experienced instructor and will receive a safety and itinerary briefing. Once you've geared up in a thermal suit, boots, gloves, goggles, balaclava, and mittens, you'll be provided with an introduction to snowmobiling and snowmobile driving techniques. Now, the fun starts!

You'll feel a rush like none other as you set off into the Arctic landscapes of Longyearbyen on your electric snowmobile.
