Destination Arctic Circle
Del
We are a non-profit that promotes Greenland’s Arctic Circle region and helps develop its tourism potential.
We provide info for visitors and help tour operators create high-quality experiences that protect the region while ensuring local needs are met. Greenland’s Arctic Circle region includes the towns of Kangerlussuaq, Maniitsoq and Sisimiut and the following key attractions:
✔️ easiest access to the Greenland ice sheet
✔️ the famous Arctic Circle trail and many other impressive hikes
✔️ dogsledding under the northern lights
✔️ the best wildlife spotting in Greenland including musk oxen, reindeer and whales
✔️ fly-fishing in pristine arctic rivers
✔️ world-renowned heliskiing and ski touring
It is also home to the following international events:
✔️ the Arctic Circle Race - the toughest ski race in the world
✔️ the Polar Circle Marathon - which partially takes place on the ice sheet
✔️ Arctic Sounds - one of Greenland’s biggest music festivals
We have the largest backcountry in all of Greenland - plenty of space for you to get away from it all and learn a little about Greenlandic culture and our way of life from locals. We are happy to help you with any questions at all, so feel free to message us. We hope to see you here soon!

Kangerlussuaq is the gateway to the Greenland Ice Sheet, where visitors can walk on one of the world’s largest ice masses and experience its breathtaking Arctic landscape up close. ❄️🚶🏔️🌍

🚲 Could this be Greenland’s next great bikepacking adventure?
The rugged Arctic Circle Track connects the Greenland Ice Sheet near Kangerlussuaq with Sisimiut on the coast — crossing vast tundra and the UNESCO World Heritage Site Aasivissuit–Nipisat.
The route is remote and demanding, but full of potential. Would you bike from ice to ocean?
