Greenland Ice Sheet Challenge

Hike the coastal fjords

Immerse yourself in the raw, untouched beauty of the Arctic wilderness, reaching areas only accessible on foot. Break trail in total solitude, traversing valleys, rivers, shale and crag, feeling dwarfed by towering glaciers, impressive peaks.

Greenland Ice Sheet Challenge

Antarctica's little sister

Often called Antarctica's Little Sister for its strikingly similar landscape of vast, pristine ice fields and formidable polar conditions. This Challenge offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience the closest environment to Antarctica, testing your endurance on sweeping glacial plains.

Greenland Ice Sheet Challenge

Take polar skills to the next level

Refine your expertise on an expedition designed to push your limits and simulate the Antarctic environment. From weathering piteraqs to advanced navigation, this journey will elevate your skillset and prepare you for the world’s most challenging polar adventures.

On the east coast of Greenland lies some of the world’s most majestic and untouched scenery. In an area four times the size of the UK lives only 3,000 people. When one thinks about Greenland one thinks of the polar ice sheet. Indeed, much of the island is covered in the other worldly landscape which is the second largest body of ice on the planet – ‘Antarctica’s little sister’. But a different world lies on the coast - dominated by towering mountains, glaciers, fjords and icebergs. With no road network this is one of the least visited places on earth and is truly wild.

The Greenland Challenge is designed to take your polar skills to an advanced level through an itinerary of skiing across the ice sheet, sailing through fjords, canoeing past iceberg fields and hiking through mountainous valleys.

"At the end of this experience I truly felt as if I had conquered a side of myself that didn’t believe intense physical challenges were something for me."

“It was probably the best experience of my life so far."
