4 Reasons To Visit Greenland on Your Next Vacation

Northern Lights, exquisite wildlife, and endless hot chocolate, Greenland is a mystical country to visit. A fun fact about Greenland is that it is completely ice and Iceland is mostly green.

The raw Arctic wilderness and ship expeditions will make your trip to Greenland very memorable. It isn’t like any other travel you’ll take on in your life, but there’s something about Greenland that calls the wanderer in you to visit there.

Here are four reasons why you should visit Greenland:

1. Visit Ilulissat Icefjord

Situated in West Greenland, the Ilulissat Icefjord is the world’s most active glacier. It is entirely natural and one of the most stunning wonders of the world.

It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and very special to the Greenlandic people.

2. Kayaking in ice-cold waters

Greenland has a rugged coastline. The waters are crystal clear and very, very cold. Going kayaking in these waters is a different experience altogether.

While kayaking, you can hear the crunching and cracking sound of ice and glaciers and the sweet call of seabirds.

3. Experience the Northern Lights

Visit Kangerlussuaq to experience the best display of Northern Lights. You get to experience the Northern Lights on 300 clear days in Greenland. The best time to see the lights is between October to April, so plan your trip accordingly.

4. Visit the world’s largest national park

North-Eastern Greenland National Park is the largest national park globally, with a coastline of 11,000 miles. You get to see amusing arctic creatures like polar bears, muskoxen, seagulls, caribou, walruses, and foxes in the national park. If you are lucky, you will get to see herds of muskoxen.

They are the largest land animal in the Arctic region, weighing over 400 kg. Locals make traditional clothing and handicrafts using their wool.

I hope these 4 reasons are enough for you to visit Greenland.
