The opportunity to simply set foot on the Greenland Ice Sheet is a great experience, but to walk amid its white emptiness on a mini expedition is truly an unbeatable adventure.
By stepping only a little deeper within the seemingly never ending Ice Sheet, a great ice landscape unfolds. We will wander among the hilss and valleys, and eventually find ourselves surrounded by crystal blue streams, rivers, waterfalls, and lakes - all formed by melted water from the ice.
Equipped with crampons and hiking poles, walking across the ice sheet is still a bit more challenging than trekking across hilly terrain. Our guide will make sure to demonstrate and instruct the techniques, so we are comfortable hiking safely. This ensures that all levels of experience with hiking are welcome to join. We hike on ancient ice compacted beneath our feet, we will wander through the Arctic desert in pursuit of the ideal spot to enjoy lunch. Here, the drinking water comes directly from the glacial lake!
When our adventure on the Ice Sheet has come to an end, we will drive back to Kangerlussuaq through serene Arctic landscapes, which are home to reindeer, muskox, and many varied species of Arctic birds and plant life.
