About This Experience
Your journey begins in Cape Town, where you’ll receive a full safety briefing and be fitted for polar clothing. From there, board a 5-hour flight to the Wolf’s Fang blue-ice runway in Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. As night turns into day over the Southern Ocean, you’ll cross into the polar circle—where the sun never sets during the summer season.
On landing, you’ll be greeted by your expert expedition team and transferred to Wolf’s Fang Camp, a remote outpost featuring six heated guest tents, a stylish communal lounge and dining area, and a chef-curated culinary programme including freshly baked bread each morning and nightcaps by the fire each evening.
Throughout your stay, choose from a series of bespoke adventures—from summiting glacier-carved peaks to remote overnight camps and rope traverses over ice and rock. Whether you’re a seasoned explorer or simply answering the call of the unknown, Wolf’s Fang delivers an experience few will ever witness.

An Example Itinerary
Day 1 – Arrival in Antarctica
Depart Cape Town and fly over the Southern Ocean aboard a private aircraft. Watch the stars fade as you cross into 24-hour daylight and soar over thousands of icebergs. Land on the Wolf’s Fang Runway and transfer to camp. Settle in with a welcome drink and dinner beside the mountain that gave the camp its name.
Day 2 – Explore the Nunataks
Begin your Antarctic immersion with a guided hike through the towering nunataks—rocky peaks rising from the ice. Learn to use crampons and ice axes as you get a feel for the terrain. Return to camp for a fireside dinner and trip planning session with your expedition guides.
Day 3 – Summit a Remote Peak
Embark on a full-day ascent into the Holtedahl Mountains, navigating a glacier valley and climbing a rocky ridge to reach a summit that few humans have ever set foot on. Pause at the top to take in an endless view of ice, sky, and silence. Return to camp for a celebration dinner and champagne toast.
Day 4 – Ice Climbing & Glacier Traverse
Skidoo across sculpted ice to the perfect climbing site. Under the guidance of expert alpinists, test your strength on vertical ice walls shaped by the wind. Refuel with a warm lunch and trek back to camp as the sun continues its endless arc above the horizon.
Day 5 – The Needle Peak Traverse
Traverse the glacier by Arctic Truck to the dramatic Needle Peak, where rock explodes from the ice in vertical shards. Take on a challenging rope walk and scramble across this striking landscape before enjoying a late lunch. Return to Wolf’s Fang for a final evening of reflection and camaraderie.
Day 6 – Return to Africa
Fly out of Antarctica, watching the stark white disappear beneath the wings as you return to Cape Town. Transfer to your hotel for a warm bath, a soft bed, and the deep satisfaction of having touched one of Earth’s most remote corners.
