The ‘Age of Exploration’ ensured this region to be the most famous outside of the South Pole. This is where Scott raced against Amundsen, where Shackleton and his men lay stranded and frozen trapped by winter and from where all future expeditions to reach that elusive southern summit would set out. With its enormous ice shelf, active volcano, dry valleys and string of historic huts and active bases, this part of Antarctica covers all aspects of Antarctic adventure.
