  4. Russell Glacier

Driving partially off-road we take the fascinating route to the spectacular Russell Glacier.

The glacier is an impressive sight with its vertical ice walls rising as high as 60 m. We’ll get close enough for some great photo and video opportunities.

During summer we have good chances of witnessing the glacier calve. The surroundings are spectacular, and chances are good for spotting musk oxen and perhaps even ptarmigans and arctic hare.

Meeting point
Polar Lodge, Kangerlussuaq

Kangerlussuaq is a settlement in western Greenland. It is Greenland's main air transport hub and airport, and also benefits from the only road leading to the ice sheet by car. The Kangerlussuaq area is also home to Greenland's most diverse terrestrial fauna, including muskoxen, caribou, arctic hares and gyrfalcons.
