Experiences in Maniitsoq
Welcome to the experiences of the other world. Go exploring for new exciting experiences right here.
Greenlandic culture
Meet the Greenlanders on their home turf. Hospitable Greenlanders bid you welcome to their home. Accept an irresistible offer of a kaffemik and good stories.
Whale watching
The sea is teeming with whales. As a spectator expect to be at a loss for words when you get close to these giant mammals of the deep.
Trophy hunting
A trophy from reindeer and musk ox is on many hunters' wish list. And in Greenland, the goal is within short reach; only about five hours journey from Denmark you can get on musk and reindeer hunting.
Kayaking
Kayaking in Greenland is for experienced rowers who enjoy the silent movement in waters with white mountains as a backdrop.
Angling
Do rods, spinners and fish in all shapes and sizes have you hooked? Fishing is a pastime that can be enjoyed at any time of the year by people who love the challenge of rivers and lakes.
Museums and art
Paintings, tooth, stone and bone. Greenland’s museums reflect the country’s cultural heritage and disseminate it using modern forms of expression.
Sailing
Embark, disembark, head ashore, then embark once more! But never miss out on the chance to take a sailing trip through the magnificent landscape that’s sure to sweep you off your feet.
Hiking
It’s a short distance from towns and settlements to open expanses with lakes, fells and the sea. Remember your map and compass or let yourself be guided by an experienced pathfinder.
DID YOU KNOW
Sukkertoppen (sugarloaf) is a translation of the Dutch word Zuikerbrood, which the area was christened by Dutch whalers many years ago.
Paradise for anglers. You don’t have to be an experienced angler to land a trout weighing 1-3 kg. From June until September a successful catch is more or less guaranteed.
Greenland by Topas organises trips that you can’t find elsewhere in Greenland. Ice Sheet, musk oxen, whales, abandoned settlements, dogsleds and hikes back in time.
Artist Aka Høegh, along with animal skin seamstress Martha Biilman from Maniitsoq, has decorated the church, which is from 1981.
Paradise for kayakers. The area is perfect for kayaking. Good landing places and fjords – and, most important of all, sheltered waters.
