Krefftberget
Krefftberget is a mountain group at Barentsøya, Svalbard. It is named after Australian zoologist Gerard Krefft, and is situated at the southern part of the island.[1]
The hill of Helisberg is located southeast in Krefftberget,[2] and further south is the slope of Fuglehallet, which is a nesting site for numerous birds.[3] East of Krefftberget is the valley of Kvistdalen and the river of Kvista,[4][5] and to the northeast is the mountain of Kvistdalskuven.[6] The coastal plain of Lucerasletta extends from Krefftberget to the spit of Barkhamodden.[7]
