Colesdalen

Valley of Spitsbergen, Norway


Colesdalen is a valley in Nordenskiöld Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. The valley debouches into the bay Colesbukta, at the southern side of Isfjorden.[1]

Colesdalen is located north of the Nordenskiöld Land National Park, but not included in the park, due to mining interests.[2]

The Coleselva River flows through the valley.[1]
