Fridtjovbreen

Fridtjovbreen is a glacier in Nordenskiöld Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard.

It has a length of about 14 kilometers, and debouches into the bay Fridtjovhamna at the northern side of Van Mijenfjorden.

The name stems from a hunting vessel used during the Torell expedition to Spitsbergen.

[1] The lower part of the glacier is included in the Nordenskiöld Land National Park.

[2] To the west of Fridtjovbreen is the mountain Ingeborgfjellet,[3] a characteristic ridge and an easily recognizable landmark viewed from sea.
