Experiences

Paddleboard or kayak among icebergs
The camp has icebergs in its bay, and we have several kayaks, paddleboards, and dry suits in different sizes. You are welcome to join one of our guided tours, even if you have never tried it before.

Hiking around Camp Kangiusaq
There are several options for good hikes.
We have a guided hike up to our lake. Here we have a great view back to the camp, and up into the Kangiusaq valley. The hike is approximately 3 km, with 150 m of elevation gain.
You can also go on your own hikes (with a GPS and safety equipment that you can borrow from the camp).

Northern lights
Camp Kangiusaq is a great place to experience the northern lights as we have extremely little light pollution. The northern lights can be seen from around the middle of August until the camp closes on the 1st of October.

Wildlife
Camp Kangiusaq is in a wildlife rich area. Notably, it's possible to see Caribou, Arctic Hares, Polar Foxes and even wild sheep. There are no Musk Oxen in the area, even though they live to the South and north of Nuuk. This is due to the Nuuk fiord being cut off by large glaciers on either side, which the Musk Oxen can not cross.

Bird Watching
The Kangiusaq fiord has its own little bird cliffs. In fact, it's the southern most spot in Greenland where cormorants breed. There are also black guillemots and a number of different gull species, but, perhaps most excitingly, it is the only place in the Nuuk fiord where the white Gyr Falcon nests. An illusive bird with a large terrority, rarely spotted, but known to nest here. It is said to be a great spirit that resides on one of the mountains.

Go fishing
Join us for a combined cruise and fishing trip in our small motorboat. We have lifejackets for everyone, but advise that you bring your own warm clothes with you. We use traditional handlines to catch cod which we serve in our fish soup.
Learn from our guides how to clean and filet your fish.
We also have fishing rods that you are free to use at anytime to fish from land, where you can catch cod, and possibly Arctic Char.
