THE ARCTIC CIRCLE REGION

In the region around the Arctic Circle on Greenland’s West coast a world of towering peaks , deep fjords, the great ice cap, and seasons contrasted by the midnight sun and the northern lights offers adventures for all ages and levels of experience.

Just 4 hours from Europe, Kangerlussuaq has abundant wildlife and access straight onto to the monumental ice cap, while Sisimiut, Greenland second largest town, is only a hike on the Arctic Circle Trail or a short flight away.

Sisimiut is a natural base camp for angling, dogsledding, snowmobiling, heli-sightseeing, and cultural history tours, while the nearby settlements of Sarfannguit and Itilleq are top picks if you want to spend a day meeting local fishermen and enjoying the hospitality of true Greenlandic settlement life, just like you can do in Atammik and Napasoq further to the South.

Offering a unique combination of alpine peaks, deep narrow fjords, and large glacial areas the town of Maniitsoq is a perfect whale watching, heliskiing, and angling spot, while a short daycruise takes you to Kangaamiut, the settlement from where the secluded Eternal Fiord offers beauty beyond belief.

The Arctic Circle Region is a true Greenlandic adventure destination.
