Rag­nar­breen

Bil­lefjord: Rag­nar­breen

This pan­ora­ma was taken on a fro­zen lake with beau­tiful blue ice bet­ween the morai­ne and the gla­cier Rag­nar­breen. The wide space bet­ween the morai­ne and the gla­cier, now fil­led by the lake, indi­ca­tes the retre­at in recent deca­des due to cli­ma­te chan­ges.

During the win­ter sea­son, Rag­nar­breen is part of an over­land rou­te from Lon­gye­ar­by­en to Pyra­mi­den. In con­trast to the (so far) more com­mon rou­te via Nor­dens­ki­öld­breen, this rou­te does not depend on fjord ice in Bil­lefjord. Part of this rou­te is, howe­ver, only allo­wed to tra­vel if you are eit­her a regis­tered local or tog­e­ther with a local or a gui­de.
