Finn Malmgrenfjorden, Arctic fjord in Nordaustlandet, Svalbard.

The fjord extends between Glenhalvøya and Bergstrømodden, forming a deep water inlet within the northernmost region of the Svalbard archipelago.

The fjord bears the name of Swedish meteorologist Finn Malmgren, who perished during the 1928 Italia expedition while attempting to seek help after an airship crash.

Scientists and researchers regularly visit this remote fjord to study Arctic ecosystems and monitor environmental changes in the polar region.

Access to the fjord requires specialized vessels and permits from Norwegian authorities, as navigation through Arctic waters demands careful preparation.

A land tongue measuring 500 meters separates Finn Malmgrenfjorden from the adjacent Adlersparrefjorden, creating a distinctive geographical formation.
