Entering Madeleine Bay is like entering a mirror-covered corridor in which the surrounding rugged mountains are reflected. These snowy, chiselled mountains would have inspired the explorer Williem Barentsz to name the “pointed mountain” Spitzberg in 1596. Punctuated with stunning beaches, imposing glaciers and remains of former whale hunting times, Magdalenefjord offers a breathtaking setting, which is home to whales, walruses, seals, Common Eiders, terns, polar bears and arctic foxes.
