Ten Aussie survivalists are being taken well out of their comfort zone for Alone Australia 2026, which – in a series first – is set in the northern hemisphere. They'll be entirely self-reliant in the near-inhospitable region of Sápmi (known by some as Lapland) in the Arctic Circle, where even the indigenous Sámi people have only formed a small handful of settlements.

You can watch Alone Australia season 4 online from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free.

Former Navy chef Trent is eyeing 101 days, which is ambitious considering the all-time franchise record is 100 days, and nobody in Alone Australia history has made it beyond 76 days in warm climes. Hunting is also forbidden this season.

On paper, wrecking yard manager Arash, permaculture practitioner Jasper, outdoor guide Lillian and ultramarathon runner Sia look as if they have potential. Arash, Jasper and Sia are accomplished at foraging and fishing, while Lillian – who grew up in nearby Sweden – has led remote wilderness tours in temperatures as extreme as -60 degrees Celsius.

Arash and Sia have especially fascinating backstories. Arash lost everything when war destroyed his hometown in Afghanistan, after which every minute of every day became about survival. Sia grew up in extreme poverty in Thailand, which taught her more than most about resilience and scratching out a living.
