An Arctic Journey 1920 x 1080

Synopsis

(Also available in 52 mins) Heading north, towards Svalbard. An Arctic Journey is much more than just an adventure; it’s a true ski journey but not only that. It’s about sharing a mostly untouched natural world, where everything is beauty and wonder. A group of ordinary people, determined to do something a bit extraordinary, set out to ski untouched slopes in complete self-sufficiency on the island of Spitzbergen, all while minimizing their carbon footprint. This defines the purpose of the expedition, motivates the approach, and justifies the means. It’s an attempt to show that today, it’s still possible to dream, as long as we do things differently. To find travel solutions that are thoughtful, less impactful, yet accessible to all, without giving up on the desire for exploration in a breathtaking natural setting far from home. It’s about no longer seeing an expedition as an end in itself, but taking the time for discovery, for encounters, and being part of a genuine journey, An Arctic Journey.
