This is your chance to get out into the Arctic tundra for a cosy night by the fire. You’ll be met at your accommodation and brought on to Camp Barentz, tucked away in the Advent Valley about 10km outside of Longyearbyen. Here, you’ll be welcomed into a quaint log-cabin hut by your delightful Nordic hosts, who’ll be treating you to bonfire coffee, cake and a meal of hot and tasty reindeer. It’s a real taste of authentic adventuring, complete with Spitsbergen stories and a presentation on polar bears. Be sure to back some warm clothing, as you’ll also want to duck outside to catch the Midnight Sun, or, in the winter, the Northern Lights. At the end of the evening, you’ll be brought back to your accommodation.
