In the northernmost part of Melville Bay on the northwest coast the settlement of Savissivik lies on an island that's surrounded by enormous glaciers that end out in the sea. We're in the part of Greenland where you can't help wondering what's the longest: the coastline or the glacier front?
Savissivik means 'the place where you find iron/material for knives'. The Cape York meteorite exploded over the area many thousands of years ago and has given the local people material from which to make ulu, the Greenlandic knife, for centuries.
It's also a historic area which Robert Peary frequented during his 10-year long polar exploration. In 1909 he became the first person to reach the North Pole. He would ever have achieved this feat without the help of the local Inuit and their dogsleds.
The area has magnificent fauna and flora and the settlement itself has a Pilersuisoq grocery store, a service building and a church from 1962. There are thus plenty of hings to see in the area, which is very remote.
Welcome to the experiences of the other world. Go exploring for new exciting experiences right here.

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.
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.
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.
