Indre Wijdefjorden National Park

Indre Wijdefjorden National Park protects the inner reaches of Wijdefjorden, at 108 kilometers the longest fjord on Svalbard, in northern Spitsbergen, Norway, established on 9 September 2005. Covering 1,127 square kilometers, 745 of them land and 382 marine, it is the smallest national park on Svalbard, with steep terrain along a fjord that narrows dramatically to about 50 meters at Elvetangen before opening into a 250 meter deep inland basin. It contains Europe's only High Arctic steppe ecosystem, including plant species found nowhere else on Svalbard, and supports polar bears, Svalbard reindeer, Arctic foxes and breeding pink-footed geese.
