Hiking
The Ice Caves in the glaciers near Longyearbyen are meltwater caves that form anew every summer. Every year, the mountain guides from the village look for new access tunnels to the several hundred meter long, branched cave systems. A fascinating experience that can be combined with the ascent to the Trollsteinen.

Inside, a spectacular display of colors unfolds, with blue, crystal-clear ice that glows in the sunlight from outside.
Guided tours are highly recommended, as the caves can be unstable and constantly changing. Experienced guides ensure safety and explain the geological features.
