Experience the Unique Charms of Oqaatsut, Greenland
Join us on an adventure to the small settlement of Oqaatsut! Your local Greenlandic guide is a wealth of knowledge about the area and its history, and will accompany you on this exciting journey.
Ride across hills, sea ice, and frozen lakes on snowmobiles to reach this picturesque little village. As we approach the village, you’ll notice the traditional wooden houses. Despite having fewer than 40 residents, Oqaatsut boasts a small shop, bed & breakfast, restaurant mainly open during summertime. The residents of the village are mainly hunters who gather ice to melt for water and hunt for their own food. They live a simple lifestyle surrounded by the ruggedness of nature.
