	View the Poseidon Arctic Voyages - North Pole Flash Brochure

The North Pole has been conquered, but it is still by no means an easy place to get to. The Arctic ice is a challenge even for the most tremendous power, which was curbed in XX century - the nuclear power. A North Pole Voyage aboard the nuclear powered icebreaker takes place in the region with one of the most severe and unfriendly climates on Earth. This voyage is a real expedition - although without all hardships and severities of the first exploration expeditions to this part of the world. During favorable Arctic weather we land onto the islands of the Franz Josef Land archipelago (discovered in 1873, but yet little explored). Indeed, it happens to be significant for us, that the first International Polar Year has been initiated by Karl Weyprecht - one of the discoverers and first explorers of Franz Josef Land. Nowadays Franz Josef Land is the Nature reserve, which is visited several times a year by passengers of "Poseidon Arctic Voyages".
