Immerse yourself in the local way of life and the stark, beautiful Arctic landscape, home to iconic species like polar bears and muskoxen. This journey offers a unique opportunity to connect with the region’s natural habitat and observe the wildlife that thrives in this challenging environment. As polar bears and muskox are present all year round in the Ittoqqortoormiit area, this opportunity exists during summer and winter. Imagine gliding through snow-bound valleys with only the sound of your sled’s runners slicing through the frosty air, or sailing the world’s largest fjord system gazing at the surrounding landscape, punctuated by encounters with majestic polar bears and sturdy muskoxen thriving against the stark white of East Greenland.

Observing polar bears in their natural habitat ranks as one of the most unparalleled experiences in East Greenland. These majestic creatures, with their thick fur set against a backdrop of snow-covered mountains and glaciers, embody the essence of the Arctic’s grandeur. Getting the opportunity to encounter a herd of muskox, an historic animal of the far north, grazing across the tundra regions of the high Arctic, will leave you in awe.
