Sefströmkammen is a mountain ridge in Nordenskiöld Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. It has a length of about six kilometers, extending along Aurdalen from Søre Aurdalsbre, and comprises the peak of Hamretoppen and other peaks. The ridge is named after Swedish geologist Nils Gabriel Sefström.[1] The glacier-dammed Kamvatnet is located between Sefströmkammen and Fridtjovbreen.[2] The lower ridge of Flathaugen is proximate to Sefströmkammen.[3]
