Voyage Highlights
From Svalbard to Greenland
Setting sail from Longyearbyen, we’ll first visit the polar research station of Ny-Ålesund before heading to Greenland to explore Northeast Greenland National Park. This gigantic natural reserve of 375,000 square miles occupies the remote northeastern quarter of the country. Here, with some luck, you might see iconic Arctic species like musk oxen.
From Greenland to Iceland
Further south, Scoresby Sund is an immense system of fjords and glaciers fanning out over 24,000 square miles. Expect majestic fjord landscapes, and historical ruinsand the potential visit to one of the most remote communities in the world before we sail to Iceland at the end of the voyage.
