Just bring warm clothes and good footwear, don&#8217;t venture onto glaciers alone, and check the weather forecast before you go sea fishing. On Svalbard, you could become lunch for a polar bear if you&#8217;re unlucky\u2026\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-drop-cap\">People often feel the cold in summer more than in winter, and serious cases of hypothermia are fairly common. Shorts and T-shirts may well be a little optimistic for the fresh Northern Norwegian summer. Although you might sweat on your way up the mountain, you will quickly cool off when you sit down, so you should make sure that you have a spare shirt to change into, and keeping a sweater in your backpack is always a good idea. It&#8217;s also wise to have extra clothing with you in case you break an ankle and have to wait to be rescued. It&#8217;s always cooler out at sea than inland.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/juli_20_2016_floya_39460.jpg\" data-size=\"1067x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/juli_20_2016_floya_39460.jpg\" alt=\"There are many popular photo motifs along the trip to Fl\u00f8ya and Djevelporten.

Glaciers are full of crevasses, some of which are several dozen metres deep and invisible from the surface. Crampons, rope and ice axes are essential for glacier hikes, and we recommend everyone to complete a glacier course beforehand. Alternatively, you can join an organised glacier hike with a trained glacier guide. Some mountain hikes involve crossing a glacier, e.g. M\u00f8ysalen in Vester\u00e5len and Oksskolten in Helgeland. If you don&#8217;t have the experience or the equipment, you are advised to join an organised trip to the summit. Glacier fronts can also be dangerous places, because ice can fall without warning and bury you or hit your head. This is why you should never approach a wall of ice.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Baard-Loeke-engenbreen-1.jpg\" data-size=\"1203x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Baard-Loeke-engenbreen-1.jpg\" alt=\"Engenbreen glacier.

However, overnight trips require a polar bear watch, tripwires and a wide range of other precautions, and are only recommended for experienced travellers.
