Haakon VII Land is located on the western side of Spitsbergen, between Woodfjorden and Kongsfjorden.

Haakon VII Land is a land area in the northwestern part of Spitsbergen, Svalbard (part of Norway), between Woodfjorden and Kongsfjorden.[1]

The area was named (asFrench: Terre Haakon VII) after the then King of Norway, Haakon VII, by Gunnar Isachsen, who mapped the area in the first decade of the 20th century.[1][2]

Haakon VII Land lies within Nordvest-Spitsbergen National Park.[1] The highest mountain in Haakon VII Land is Eidsvollfjellet.[3]
