I have spent the whole summer in Spitsbergen, constantly searching for wildlife, fascinating landscapes and interesting history.
Join exciting arctic voyages with a mouseclick – enjoy photos and triplogs!
After the end of the arctic summer 2009, I want to produce a CD (or DVD) with a selection of the best photos of the whole season – more than three months in the Arctic, Spitsbergen from late June to early October, from midnight sun to northern light!
Just write me if you want to be informed (without any obligation) when it is ready: Contact
Huts are places of longing, dreams and adventure in Spitsbergen’s beautiful landscape. Even if the modern visitor’s eye may mostly be directed towards nature, most will have an open ear every now and then for exciting survival stories about explorers and expeditions, adventurers and trappers.
These huts are silent witnesses and and every one of them tells a little part of the whole story. The little book “Svalbardhytter” and the poster that is part of the same project make these fascinating places accessible for everyone.
From remote ruins, just traces in a few cases, to “famous” trapper huts such as Fredheim in Tempelfjord and Bjørneborg on Halvmåneøya, the war weather station Haudegen, the former scientific base Würzburger Hütte on Barentsøya and Hammerfesthuset, Svalbard’s oldest building.
