Kapisillit, a charming settlement in Greenland's Capital Region, offers a peaceful escape with stunning views of the bay and mountains. Visitors can enjoy river fishing for unique salmon species, explore the backcountry, and soak up the local vibe at the recently restored church. With cozy accommodations and a laid-back atmosphere, Kapisillit is the perfect spot to unplug and recharge while immersing yourself in Greenland's natural beauty.

For adventure seekers, the Icefiord Trail is a must-do. This multi-day hike takes you through some of Greenland's most stunning landscapes, offering dramatic views of the Ilulissat Icefjord, glaciers, and towering icebergs. Starting in Ilulissat, the trail winds through rugged terrain, valleys, and cliffs, giving you a real taste of Greenland’s untouched wilderness.

The hike is challenging but immensely rewarding, with panoramic vistas and the chance to spot Arctic wildlife like seals and seabirds. Along the way, you'll experience the serenity and raw beauty of one of the most remote places on Earth. Ideal for experienced hikers, the Icefiord Trail is perfect for those wanting to connect with nature and explore Greenland’s stunning scenery in depth.

Day 1: After a scenic boat transfer from Nuuk you arrive at the first campsite by a large lake.

Day 2: you enter a mountain top landscape full of lakes and small hills with numerous viewpoints down to the Icefjord.

Day 3: spend the night in the luxury Camp Kangiusaq. Eat food prepared by the camp staff, go kayaking or paddleboarding and try hand at fishing, or simply rest up in comfort after our hike.

Day 4: hike back to the boat.
