Sør-Spitsbergen National Park

Sør-Spitsbergen National Park (Norwegian: Sør-Spitsbergen nasjonalpark, English: South Spitzbergen National Park) encompasses the southern end of Spitsbergen island in the Svalbard archipelago, Norway.

Over 65% of the region is ice cap, with much of the rest tundra.

The park contains bird sanctuaries which protect islands with grassy vegetation, freshwater ponds and areas of bare rock.

One of these is the Isøyane Bird Sanctuary which has also recognised as a wetland of international importance by designation under the Ramsar Convention.
