Kangerlussuaq
Kangerlussuaq is much more than a runway. The magnificent countryside stretches out in front of you when you step off the plane. It’s the easiest place to get close to the enormous wall of ice that marks the edge of the Ice Sheet.

Go on a safari on the tundra and see a population of more than ten thousand musk oxen that originate from 27 oxen flown in from Northeast Greenland.

A musk ox safari is an Arctic experience. In the tundra surrounding Kangerlussuaq there are around 10,000 musk oxen. The animals live in the wild in the area and can wander wherever they like. They look benign, these large animals, whose colours blend into the surrounding countryside. Their innocent appearance is somewhat deceptive, however – so never get closer than 50 metres to these shy animals. Musk oxen are not animals you can stroke and pat.
Â
The safari takes place on a bus running through the beautiful landscape, and the guide explains how the musk ox came to Kangerlussuaq. You’ll meet reindeer on route who keep the oxen company. We’re in Santa’s homeland, after all...!

An alternative to a safari on four wheels is a trip by helicopter between hills and valleys over the area. From on high there’s an uninterrupted view of the large brown thick-coated animals with white centre section that move quietly and calmly on the tundra – perhaps with their small calves.
