Snowmobiling on a Frozen Fjord

Your adventure commences with an exhilarating snowmobile ride lasting approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, ascending to an elevation of around 300 meters. From this vantage point, on sunny days, you’ll enjoy a clear view of the magnificent “Dead Glacier.” As you approach the fjord, the snowmobiles will be left behind as you embark on an enchanting one-hour walk across the frozen expanse of the fjord itself.

Here, you’ll encounter icebergs captured within the sea ice, providing an intimate and mesmerizing encounter. Get acquainted with the hardworking sled dogs responsible for ferrying fish from the fjord to the town, and explore the huts where fishermen spend their nights before venturing onto the frozen fjord for their icy fishing expeditions. Throughout the tour, relish warm drinks and delectable cookies, adding comfort and pleasure to your journey.

After your walk, return to the snowmobiles for the ride back to town, with the opportunity to catch sight of Ilulissat from an impressive 200-meter altitude, weather permitting.
