Systemafjellet is a mountain in Nordenskiöld Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. It is named after the work Systema Naturae by Carl Linnaeus. The mountain has a length of about three kilometers, and peaks of 745 and 667 m.a.s.l. It is located between the valley of Orustdalen and the mountain ridge of Linnéfjella.[1][2] The glacier of Linnébreen flows from Systemafjellet down towards Linnédalen.[3]
