Lodge

Isfjord Radio Station

Outside, 10 km from Van Mijenfjordenby Basecamp Explorer Spitsbergen

A converted radio station at Kapp Linné, about 90 km from Longyearbyen, sold as multi-day all-inclusive stays. Svalbard reindeer and Arctic foxes can be seen from the rooms, and the station sits next to the Kapp Linné bird reserve. The stays are general Arctic adventures, with guided hikes, boat trips and snowmobiling, rather than dedicated photo tours.
