Tour Details

We pick you up at your accommodation and take you to our base camp, where you will be provided with all the necessary equipment, warm clothing and a thorough safety briefing. The trip is suitable for everyone – you do not need any previous snowmobiling experience. We provide clear instructions and start off slowly, so that you quickly get into the flow.

From Longyearbyen we drive through Adventdalen and further into Colesdalen. At this time of year, the Arctic light creates a completely unique atmosphere: blue hour, spring light and eventually the iconic midnight sun. The trip covers a total of 80–90 km, perfect for those who want an eventful but not demanding evening trip.

Once in Colesbay, you will experience the remains of the historic Soviet settlement that is dramatically located by the fjord. Here we take a break to enjoy hot drinks and hot expedition food under the midnight sun – a rare and unforgettable experience that you can only find in Svalbard.

We then drive back while the light paints the mountains in ever-changing colors. A perfect evening in true Arctic surroundings!
