Walkers move with purpose along the harbor; the Arctic Cathedral’s angular white face slices the sky across the water, a modern landmark that seems to lean toward the mainland. This thirty-minute audio walk uses your phone’s GPS to cue stories and directions as you pass the Polar Museum, the Roald Amundsen statue and the main square before returning to the port.
