We strongly discourage our guests, customers, and bookers to visit the Russian settlements, Pyramiden and Barenstburg, or to book or purchase any activities and services that have to do with the Russian state-owned company Trust Arcticugol. The encouragement to cease/stop purchasing these services is due to the ongoing inhuman invasion of Ukraine by Russia.
