Discover Scoresby Sund's enchanting wilderness with towering glaciers, ancient fjords, and breathtaking scenery. This pristine ecosystem, on Greenland's eastern coast, teems with life—from impressive musk oxen to graceful seabirds.
Nestled along the eastern coast of Greenland, Scoresby Sund stretches its icy branches into the frigid waters of the Greenland Sea, creating a landscape of unparalleled natural beauty. The silence of the vast fjord is magical, broken only by the occasional crackle of melting ice or the distant roar of a glacier carving into the azure waters.
Scoresby Sund stretches about 350 kilometres inland from the Greenland Sea and is known for its raw, natural beauty. Discover the small settlement of Ittoqqortoormiit heavily influenced by Inuit traditions and witness icebergs reaching heights of up to 90 metres above sea level.
Despite its remote location and harsh climate, this pristine ecosystem teems with life. Musk oxen can be seen here, while mysterious Arctic foxes dart amongst the rocks. Above, the skies are alive with the graceful flight of seabirds, including fulmars, kittiwakes, and even the majestic ivory gull. In the water, it's possible to see harp, ringed, and hooded seals, plus humpback and fin whale. Polar bear and narwhal are both rare in this area, but can also be sighted.
