The Greenland Ice Sheet

The Greenland ice sheet is one of only two polar ice caps and covers around 80% of Greenland.

Historically, the ice sheet was rather deserted as Greenlanders preferred to stay on sea ice with access to fertile waters below. Now, thanks to aircraft, boats, and most importantly, wanderlust, the Greenland Ice Sheet has since become a popular spot for travelers in search of unmistakable Arctic adventure.

You can see the Greenland ice sheet from almost all towns across Greenland. If you would like to experience it up close though, the only road that leads to the Greenland ice sheet is located in Kangerlussuaq. Although a bit bumpy it delivers you directly to the edge of the ice sheet and offers views that are unique only to Greenland.
