Mission: To journey across the Greenland ice-sheet and explore its unique glaciated coast. 

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.

ITINERARY

REVIEWS

This Challenge really pushed me outside my comfort zone and was exactly what I needed to continue with my training for future polar adventures.
