Day 1: Arrival in Arctic Outpost Upon arrival at the Longyearbyen Airport, you'll be shuttled to the pier where the arctic rescue Vessel Ulla awaits. A quick trip into town for last minute supplies, beer, or wine and some lunch. Then return to the ship for room assignments, and vessel orientation. We then motor across glacier carved fjords to our first bay to anchor and have a traditional home cooked dinner. Watch the sun try to set and instead retire below to dark quiet rooms and prepare for the next days ski tour.
Day 2-7: Ski Glacier Peaks to Fjords 7 full days of the most beautiful arctic skiing imaginable. Led by AMGA/IFMGA Guides, explore the legendary & vast arctic playground of powder-filled valleys, glacier-carved fjords, and breathtaking descents to the sea. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a novice, there's a run for everyone, from gentle slopes to challenging couloirs.
Each day offers new opportunities to slide your way through untouched snow.
Day 7: Farewell, Longyearbyen Take a moment to reflect on the entire journey from fjord, to peak, to glacier. The wildlife, stunning views, and end of the world adventure we engaged in the previous 7 days. And depart back to Tromsø, Oslo, or Reykjavik for your journey home.
