Site Location: South-East Svalbard

Sundneset

Whether you land on the eastern or the western side of Sundneset, the area will strike you as welcoming for walks. And it is. Walk to get a view of the freshwater-ponds that also attract birds, or head for the hill east of Sundbukta, for a nice view of the bay. But as you walk, allow time to look at the many whale bones scattered in the area. They are several thousand years old and remain from a time when the shoreline looked quite different.

Kapp Lee – Dolerittneset

The returned walrus resting at the beach, Stretehamna, may at first glance be the largest attraction by Kapp Lee and Dolerittneset. But the area offers much more. From early historical walrus slaughtering, cultural remains bring you through history up to present scientific projects, everything surrounded by a beautiful landscape.
