Reach The North Pole

What it is

The geographic North Pole sits on drifting sea ice in the middle of the Arctic Ocean.

How to do it

Expeditions fly from Svalbard via a temporary ice camp, or nuclear-powered icebreakers sail from Murmansk in summer. Some people ski the last degree.

Top tip

These trips are expensive and often affected by ice conditions and politics, so book with an experienced operator.
