Bill­efjord – 28th Sep­tem­ber 2019

Posted on 28. September 2019 by Rolf Stange

Bill­efjord is one of Spitsbergen’s most beau­ti­ful fjords, if you ask me. Here, we had the oppor­tu­ni­ty to go for a hike and to crui­se along Nor­dens­kiöld­breen. Also hoping to find a polar bear that might be a bit clo­ser than the one in Lief­defjord a few days ago. This did not hap­pen, but belugas show­ed up, and the stun­ning sce­ne­ry … a per­fect­ly fine morning!

The last lan­ding was on Gips­huks­let­ta, on the cor­ner bet­ween Bill­efjord and Sassenfjord/Tempelfjord. Stun­ning arc­tic win­ter land­s­cape in the light that you only have a few weeks befo­re the onset of the polar night. A silent good­bye to Spitsbergen’s natu­re – for this time.
