3 day historical hike
The first 1/2 day will offer sightseeing in Nuuk, the capital of
Greenland and shopping for souvenirs in the local arts and
crafts shops.
Late evening guests will be transferred by boats to the
marvelous fiord "Ameralik" from where the hike will start.
Ameralik is where "Fridtjof Nansen", the first person to
cross the Greenlandic Ice Cap, made camp before he
sailed back out from his long journey.
From the very start you will get the grandness of the
Greenlandic nature.

of cause past the Old Norse ruins.
The rivers and creeks has fresh and drinkable water and
the
scenery on the entire trip is nothing but spectacular.
