Meeting at a central point in Longyearbyen, you will begin from the old cable station, hiking upwards until you reach the top of Plateau Mountain where you will enjoy spectacular views over the city, the surrounding mountains, Adventfjorden and Isfjorden. 

You will follow the mountain range before returning down the Longyear Glacier, walking the last section on the road back to town.

The trip will cover uneven terrain without roads or tracks, and you may cross rivers coming from the glacier. Be prepared for a steep hike at the beginning of the trip. Participants should be relatively fit. The tour may be changed due to weather conditions. All participants are requested to dress warmly, wear hiking boots and a hat and mittens. This trip is subject to weather conditions.
