Dog sledding

* Requires 1 night at Igloo Lodge

From Igloo Lodge, we offer one of the area's absolutely coolest winter tours - a dog sled ride from Igloo Lodge.

Here you escape the "traffic" and get the real experience of total silence. The route goes from Igloo Lodge out to a fantastic viewpoint, which we often don't share with anyone. 

The dogs stand, as extra residents of Igloo Lodge, on the lake in front of the lodge, and you are therefore involved in the entire process – from preparation to the feeding session after the trip.  

Please note
All particpants must be at least 8 years old.
The length of this tour is approx. 1,5 hour. However, this can vary from day to day, depending on conditions such as the amount and depth of snow and mood of the dog team.
If you have a back or neck issues, you should choose one of the other activities available at Igloo Lodge.

Walking amongst Giants

* Requires 1 night at Igloo Lodge

This excursion is a combined snow mobile and snowshoe adventure. The excursion begins at Igloo Lodge. From here we go by snowmobile to "Aattartoq" – the local hunters and fishermens community base throughout the winter. It is a beautiful drive, with numerous unique and spectacular views that greets us on each mountain top. We have repeatedly views of "the dead glacier" and the enormous ice sheet in the background.

We arrive at “Attartoq” after approximately 45 minutes’ drive. Here we are met by the frozen fiord Sikuiuitsoq. From the meter thick sea ice icebergs emerge in distinctive formations with nuances of blue and shinning white. But the area offers more than ice. In the cabins by the fishing grounds, local fishermen and hunters find shelter from the darkness and the cold. Close by the sledge dogs rest on the sea ice.

We attach our snowshoes at arrival and give ourselves plenty time to move among the icebergs – the Giants of Greenland. We also get insight in the life as a hunter/fisherman in present Greenland, before we return to Igloo Lodge.

Please note

The participants are divided in pairs for a snowmobile.
All particpants must be at least 12 years old.
The drivers of the snowmobiles must be able to present a valid driver's license.

Every day, we go on this wonderful snowshoe hike from Igloo Lodge. 

After a short introduction, the trip goes across the frozen lake in front of the lodge, and up through a small pass, crossing the UNESCO boearder. The pass opens out towards Ilulissat Icefjord, and here is the most beautiful view point, where we take a coffee break. 

We have plenty of time to enjoy the view, take pictures and maybe spot a ptarmigan or two before heading back towards Igloo Lodge again.
