Life at a leisurely pace
This country was built by bands of nomads who eventually settled and formed tiny, remote villages based on subsistence hunting and fishing.
The echoes of those settlements still exist today in our smallest coastal communities that lie scattered throughout the archipelago.
Out here time feels different, the sky is bigger, the sea is vast, and the hospitality of people is heartwarming.
And visiting places like Itilleq, Sarfannguit, Kangaamiut, Napasoq, and Atammik is like tapping into a cultural history that is alive and always adapting to the surrounding world.

Assaqutaq minicruise and humpback whales

While our three main hubs are Kangerlussuaq, Sisimiut and Maniitsoq the five smaller coastal communities will give those of you who make it there a chance to experience Greenlandic local culture at a leisurely pace. Sarfannguit is well connected to the Arctic Circle Trail and offers room and board for hikers, while Itilleq is situated right on the Arctic Circle and coming out here means crossing that magic line. Kangaamiut is a vibrant little town with 350 energetic inhabitants happy to take you in and share their everyday lives with you. Kangaamiut is also the place to visit for art and craft, and it is where some of you will have your basecamp if you’re on a weeklong heliskiing or skitouring trip in the Eternity Fiord mountains.
