Blue Trail Hike

Embark on a remarkable circular trail that takes you along the stunning Kangia Icefjord, offering breathtaking views of icebergs and a taste of Greenland’s backcountry, both in summer and winter.

Summer:
Traverse the trail with sturdy hiking boots, exploring rocky terrain and the beauty of midsummer evenings. Starting at Ilulissat’s Sports Hall, we’ll pass through the outskirts to the shipping container yard, and ascend through a rocky canyon for panoramic views of icebergs and Ilulissat. Wander by a mountain-framed lake and hike along a stream to the beach. Your expert guide will share insights into the fjord’s formation, history, and the region’s flora and fauna. Savor drinks and snacks in the tranquil backcountry before heading back, passing the ancient Inuit settlement of Sermermuit, concluding at the Icefjord center.

Winter:
Embrace the winter wonderland, exploring with warm winter boots amid rocky terrain and pristine snow. Starting at Ilulissat’s Sports Hall, we’ll pass through the outskirts to the shipping container yard, and ascend through a rocky canyon for stunning views of icebergs and Ilulissat. Traverse a frozen lake with thick ice and frozen streams leading to the beach. Your expert guide will share knowledge of the fjord’s formation, history, and the region’s winter wildlife. Sip hot drinks and relish snacks in the serene backcountry before heading back, passing the ancient Inuit settlement of Sermermuit, concluding at the Icefjord center.
