We are pleased to offer all registered participants a guided coastal discovery walk (Kystvandring) with Stella Polaris as the official NPBC 2026 conference excursion.

The excursion is an integral part of the conference programme and provides a unique opportunity for networking in an informal and inspiring environment. Participants will experience the spectacular Bodø coastline, learn about local nature and history, and connect with colleagues across research fields.

All registered participants are automatically included and welcome to join the excursion after lunch on the 18th of June.
No additional registration or payment is required.
