Hiking - or just walking, as we call it – is a nice way to feel your surroundings. Wherever you’re walking, city or wilderness, you see, hear, smell, feel what’s around you. We prefer to walk out there in the wilderness. Here you don’t have all the disturbing and unnecessary impulses – here it’s you and nature! On a walk with us, you hear local and personal stories about this and that, and on the breaks a warm cup of something, a view, and a local snack from our own hunts.

Camping here in the Greenlandic wilderness is always a pleasure, no matter the season. Snowy, sunny, wet, or windy, it’s all about adapting and finding the pleasure in the small things. On our camping trips, we use big tipi tents, so we all can be together in the evening around the stove, sharing stories just like back then. We do not only camp in tents, but also caves, snowcaves, and even right under the open sky. This might sound uncomfortable during winter, but in a good sleeping bag, you will never feel the stars and northern lights closer to you than out there. And imagine waking up on the top of a mountain, dry and warm in your bag, watching the sun rise while sipping on your fresh cup of coffee made on water from the river or snow by our guides – priceless!

Greenland has a lot to offer when we talk skiing and snowboarding. Our coastal mountain ranges and deep fiords has plenty of untouched areas and are known for an insane amount of summit to sea lines.

The ski season starts in early January for the more adventurous skiers, and goes pretty much all the way into June for the more shorts-wearing skiers.

With years of experience in backcountry skiing and heliskiing all along the greenlandic west coast and especially the Nuuk area, we also offer guiding and assistance for any inquiries regarding that matter.

Fishing and hunting has always been a big part of our culture and is truly something to experience. On a fishing trip here in Greenland, you’re guaranteed a good catch. There is a big variety of fish all through the year. We offer fishing from boat, from the shore, and icefishing too. Imagine to catch your fish, get back to your camp, put the fire on in the stove, and get your fresh fish prepared and served by the guide while sharing other fishing stories.

Hunting is a bit different. Here you really have to put an effort in it to get your catch, which we of course cannot guarantee. We are proud of our hunting culture here, so on a hunt with us, it will be in the way we do it. This often includes long walks, and carrying everything from the animal, since it’s a tradition to use everything. Small game hunts and trophy hunts are made on requests. And most important of all, whether you’re fishing or hunting, you are part of nature!

As active locals, we spend a lot of time in the nature all year around. By land, sea and even air. This has given us a great experience, knowledge, and also a great variety of skills.

So do you have an idea of your own adventure and need some local expertise, feel free to contact us. We are always up for an adventure.

Location: Qeqertat

Try a different sleepover on a desolated island in the outskirts of Nuuk. After a 30 minutes sail we will be dropped off on the islands called ‘Qeqertat’, which means ‘Islands’ - pretty cool huh?! Sandy beaches, bonfire and beautiful views right in the middle of one of the biggest fiord systems in the world.

Here you will be limited by the size of the island, making you surrender to the tranquility of the nature, or whatever your imagination will bring you up to!

A typical local island dinner and a camping style breakfast is included.

1850 DKK. (A minimum of 4 pax required to do the trip, and a maximum of 5 pax).

Possible to rent sleeping bag and pad for 250 DKK.

Practical info:
Pick up at the colonial harbour on the pier at 15.00. Sail in to location will be in a small open boat, so be prepared for some wind in your hair. The weather in our nature here is a cheeky one, so bring suited clothing, especially the stuff that keeps you dry. Camping will be in a 7 person teepee tent. The cell phone reception that Tom Hanks didn’t have in Cast away is on the island, but no power supply though. Sail back to Nuuk will be the next day at 12.00.

Location: Kangilia - which means, "The very best and most beautiful place to sleep and wake up on earth"

A sleepover on a mountain top with a spectacular 360 degree view of the deep fiords of Nuuk to the big straight over to Canada - what’s not to like?! Close to the summit of Kangilia at the height of about 720 meters above the sea, lies a gem. Sheltered from the colder northern winds, placed close to a summit, there is a plateau facing east, perfect for an unforgettable sunset and rise. Imagine lying in your warm sleeping bag, enjoying your cup of local tea made with the surrounding melting water from the leftovers of the cold harsh winter. And to make the experience as memorable and viewwise mind-blowing, we will sleep under the open sky - oh yes!

An expedition style dinner and survival breakfast is included.

1850 DKK. (A minimum of 2 pax is required to do the trip, and a maximum of 4 pax)

Possible to rent sleeping bag and pad for 250 DKK / And hiking backpack for 200 DKK

Practical info:
We will hike together from the end of Uiffak street at 15.00. The hike is approximately 3 hours, and is a bit tough, steady and long ascent, but with loads of fun, interesting and beautiful things on the way. Pretty sure that the guide will have some stories from and about the backcountry also. Remember the right clothing as in light for the hike up, and warm and dry for the summit. In case of bad or wet weather, there will be a tent to creep into, but only if the guide decides it's necessary - we want to make sure we feel nature as close as we can - that way your story will be even better to tell when you get back to the comfy couch. The descent (which is approx. 2-2,5 hours long) will start before noon the day after, depending on the weather, so we will be back at start point at 13.00.

Location: Tunuani - which means "Behind it"

Take a hike with us in the stunning backyard of Nuuk, and spice it up with some local snacks and tea on top of Quassussuaq while overviewing the capital of Greenland. The backcountry of Nuuk is a special place to go, as you can leave the big city life and within 15 minutes feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere. Surrounded by mountains and lakes, the hike up to Quassussuaq is really soothing. As we get higher and higher, we will be able to see more and more of the fiord and sea, making it look vaster and vaster for every step we take. On top we will take a seat with a view, and taste some local snacks caught and prepared by your guides, and drink some tea made of greenlandic herbs before heading down the hill.

850 DKK. (A minimum of 3 pax is required, and maximum of 8 pax.)

Practical info:
We will hike together from the end of Uiffak street at 11.00, and end the hike at Sisorarfiit parking lot at 15.00. Bring your own water bottle, which you can fill at the fresh rivers of the mountains. It's a good idea to bring something wind or waterproof for the summit.

Location: Kiinaasaq/Umiisaartoq - 1630 meters closer to heaven

Summitting Kiinaasaq / Umiisaartoq

With its 1630 meters, ‘Kiinaasaq’ is the highest mountain in the fiord of Nuuk, and is quite an experience to hike up. A long mellow hike makes it possible to summit, even though you are not a Mt. Everest class climber. On the opposite side of Kapisillit, next to historical Pisissarfik, up on top, awaits an incredible view of the big fiord with lots of stories to tell. And from here you will definitely get an idea of how vast this land is! A lunch is served on the way, and the afternoon coffee/tea on top.

1850 DKK. (A minimum of 2 pax is required to do the trip, and a maximum of 4 pax.)

Practical info:
We will sail together from the pier in an open boat - approx. 15 min - in the morning. This is a long hike, so bring extra clothing such as something warm to put on at the summit, and something to keep you dry if it starts raining or gets windy. Any preferred snacks is recommended to bring, and a water bottle is a necessity. This you can fill up here and there in the creeks on the way up.

Target: A tasty and colorful dinner

Not sure what to eat for dinner? How about taking a hike to the best fishing spots at the river with your guide? While you're catching your fish, the guide will make local tea and coffee from the bonfire, serve some snacks and tell some hunting stories from the area. If the fish don’t bite, the guide will show you an alternative fishing method, which might not give you fish at the dinner table either, but will at least make it fun to try! And when you start jumping from rock to rock at the river, you’ll see what we mean with the river dancing.

550 DKK. Including rental of fishing gear, snacks and tea/coffee. (A minimum of 2 pax is required to do the trip, and a maximum of 8 pax.)

Practical info:
The hike is approx. 45 mins. It’s most likely char, salmon or cod you will be able to catch. We hike together from the hostel to the river and back again after about an hour at the river.

Location: Kangersuneq

A boat ride and about an hour hike away, lies a beautiful sight - Kangersuneq / The ice fiord! The Greenland icecap meets the bottom of Nuuk fiord in here, and fills it with thousands of years old ice. Sit down and listen to the ice working its way out while enjoying a warm cup of coffee or tea made by the bonfire. Soothing and unforgettable! And if we're lucky, we might see some wildlife on the way.

750 DKK. (A minimum of 2 pax is required to do the trip, and a maximum of 8 pax)

Practical info:
Bring some water on this trip, since there aren’t many creeks on this hike. We will stay on location for about an hour before heading back. A mosquito net can be good to bring.

This trip that starts at the edge of the city, makes you disappear into the mountains, away from the big city hustle bustle, and in to a remote placed tent with loads of coziness out in the wild nature. The guide will prepare a self caught dinner, and tell some hunting stories and also the story behind the very meal you’re about to have. Imagine creeping into that warm sleeping bag while the cold wind outside is making the tent shake, only disturbed by the stories you share with your friends.

A different sleepover on a mountaintop in the arctic - a true expedition style experience!

It includes a good hike no matter what, at least 3 hours, where we get to see and feel the nature at the closest. The arctic nights can be quite harsh, but also very beautiful. On a clear night, the northern lights and stars will never feel closer to you than on a mountaintop.

The weather decides where we put the food tasting, but it will for sure be at a spot with a view to remember.

Coming from the town of Maniitsoq in the western part of Greenland, Thorlak is no stranger to the backcountry. Hiking and hunting are among his finer merits along with sailing and subsistence fishing in the deep fiords along the coast line.

Whenever the need to take some time off to let his mind soar, he literally leaves the ground and takes flight. By soaring above the ground with the aid of his paraglider, Thorlak has gotten a great overview of the areas around the fiord systems near Nuuk.

His many tours in and above the backcountry serve the basis of countless hours of compelling and fun stories around the campfire.

Hailing from Aasiaat at the entrance to the Disco Bay, Adam has spent a considerable amount of his time sailing the seas between Greenland and the Caribbean whilst growing up. And ending up as a trained boat builder, Adam is not one to shy away from building stuff from scratch or making seemingly broken gear work with whatever is available. Pretty much your average Inuit MacGyver.

Adam has shredded the backcountry on skis and mountain bikes for most of his life whilst enjoying hiking and trail running in order to stay in shape and generally having a good time in the off-season. Providing for his family through hunting is second nature.

With a keen sense for music, Adam plays a number of different instruments, and if you ever see him pick up his guitar, the outcome is usually an entertaining evening to be remembered.
