Greenland features stunning nature and endless landscapes. On this hike you will have front row seat to the great Greenland outdoors.
Transfer by motorcoach to the town border and the start of the Arctic Circle Trail. This trail is often listed as one of the best long-distance hikes in the world at 125 miles long and typically taking 9-11 days to complete. Today we will be hiking just a small portion of it.
From what is typically the end point of the trail for most hikers, we’ll begin our trek through the mountain landscape into the wild, crossing creeks to discover the delicate Arctic mountain flora in scents and colors. Don’t forget your camera as you will not want to miss the incredible vistas and possible wildlife along the trail.
Please note:
Wherever Included Experience tours are offered, guests are allowed to participate in only one included experience per call unless otherwise specified in the tour description. Bring insect repellent; wear sunscreen. There are no restroom facilities available during the tour. Bring bottled water. Dress in layers and wear comfortable hiking shoes. Please realistically assess your physical fitness and ability prior to booking, as the walk is uphill, over unpaved, rough walking tracks with many steps. The level of guide experience varies due to the remoteness of the location. Limited tourism infrastructure is part of the charm here, and you are trading breadth of experience for authentic interaction. Please bring your spirit of adventure and bear with any language difficulties your guide may encounter and with any operational surprises that may crop up.
