Franz Josef Land

Franz Josef Land was completely unknown to humans until 1870 and has been hidden by ice and politics since then. Travel together withe me to the Russian Arctic National Park and discover a dynamic landscape of sliding sea ice, glaciers and misty islands which are the perfect habitat for polar bears, seals, walruses and colonies with thousands of seabirds. Discover one of the most hidden and rarely visited destinations on our planet.
