The Northwest Passage, the story of a legendary route.
For nearly three centuries, generations of navigators attempted to find a sea route linking the North Atlantic to the Pacific.
But the Arctic is not limited to the Northwest Passage.
Centuries of explorers sought to conquer its unknown Arctic territories. There, only a handful of Inuit brought any “human” presence to this icy, hostile world.
Today, even though it has become more accessible, the Arctic remains a destination for adventure, at sea as much as on land.
The Svalbard archipelago (Spitsbergen) is the most visited region, yet remains a must-see. Others, more little-known — Baffin Island, Franz Josef Land, and the legendary North Pole — are the object of every conquest!
By virtue of its remoteness from inhabited lands, the memory of the adventurers who lived out true epics there, and the mystery that still shrouds these far-flung territories, the Arctic remains an extraordinary destination.
An ideal destination for travelers dreaming of an absolute change of scenery and discoveries found nowhere else.
