Greenland Immersion 2025

Uummannaq, Greenland , Greenland

Fifteen (15) days in Greenland! We’re heading to Greenland again! Why Greenland? Yes, it IS the birthplace of the Qajaq, but it is also like witnessing when the Earth was born. You may see and set foot on places where no one has been before you. It’s one of our favorite places to paddle and we don’t get there often enough. We like to immerse ourselves in the local culture – you’ll travel like a Greenlander…hand-lining cod or char for dinner, learning to eat seal (definitely an acquired taste) or musk-ox, hunting with your camera, paddling in sea ice and camping in sites used as traditional hunt camps for generations. Think cultural immersion by paddle….all with a safety net that comes with our over 40-year history in the kayak tripping business.

$5800 – $6300
