Snowmobile Expedition to Reindalen & Van Mijenfjorden
with Snowfox Travel
About the tour
This is not the typical snowmobile tour. We leave the well-travelled routes and ride through snow-filled canyons towards Reindalen, one of the largest and most beautiful valleys in Svalbard.
The route continues to Van Mijenfjorden, known for great scenery and wildlife. Look out for reindeer, Arctic fox, seals on the ice and even polar bear tracks. We stop often at scenic spots and enjoy a warm expedition lunch out in the wilderness. About 140-160 km in total.
Physical Requirements
Suitable for most without snowmobile experience, through some rugged terrain.
