Book now for 2025/2026, including flights from the UK and charter from Helsinki – Murmansk.
The North Pole is perhaps the most amazing location on our entire planet. There are no “four corners of the World” here: South is all around you and any wind is southern. Above the “Top of the World,” stars never rise or set: instead they move around you with the Earth’s rotation. A holiday to the North Pole is an absolute bucket list experience. The Polar Star, the beacon of all travellers in the Northern Hemisphere, is invariably in its zenith.

Long days, arduous conditions and difficult terrain. Sound like fun? We think so! Our North Pole Last Degree Arctic Expedition is the most popular Polar Expedition and an adventure in every sense of the word. Become a polar explorer, Ski to the North Pole.
This is an arctic expedition with a difference, travelling across the dynamic polar pack ice requires patience and agility, not to mention a flexible attitude to deal with the many diversions that pop up over the course of each day. From open water “leads” to huge pressure ridges, there are many obstacles on this expedition that make reaching the North Pole all the more satisfying. This expedition begins in the remote, yet modern village of Longyearbyen, Norway, well above the Arctic Circle at 78 degrees north.
Only completed by a handful of people each year, this once in a lifetime ski expedition to the North Pole is at the top of any adventurers expedition list.
Most team members participate in our polar training and they arrive feeling well prepared and excited for a great journey. We plan for one day in town to review your equipment, ready our kits and take care of last minute details. From Longyearbyen we’ll make our way to approximately 89 degrees north latitude via a charter flight and possibly an additional helicopter lift.
Depending on conditions and the time of our arrival we’ll either set up camp or strap on our skis and sleds and head off toward our goal – the geographic North Pole.
Skiing 7-10 hours a day over the dynamic pack ice, we’ll encounter many challenges and breath-taking scenery. If conditions are good, our route will take us across large pans of flat ice that present few obstacles. When conditions are less than ideal, we’ll have to manoeuvre around open water “leads” and over pressure ridges that can range from 1-5 meters in height. Families and friends can follow your daily progress and send you messages via an online expedition blogs. As with all of our expeditions this is a “hands-on” experience. You’ll be participating in all aspects of the expedition, including setting up camp, cooking, tracking our progress, etc.

Your adventure begins in the bustling Arctic village of Longyearbyen, Norway. Located well above the Arctic Circle, Longyearbyen is a delightful village with all the comforts of home and the ideal home base for this first class adventure.
Our dash to the North Pole starts with a charter flight to the Polar ice station “Barneo”, located roughly sixty miles from the North Pole (flight time approximately 2.5 hours from Longyearbyen). We overnight on the pack ice in heated tents with only Ice between us and the Arctic Sea. The next morning board a helicopter for the final leg to the top of the world. Once at the North Pole we’ll celebrate with Champagne, lots of photos to document your arrival and a call home from the top of the world.

The expedition will take place over 8-10 days in April. The Programme may change depending on the weather, ice, technical and other conditions.
Those who wish may extend the programme with additional dives near the ice airfield, between their return from the Pole and their departure for Longyearbyen. In this case, the programme will be extended by several days. The expedition requires all the participants to work together to achieve the main goal: full-blown, interesting and safe diving as close as possible to the North Pole, by each participant in the programme.
