Narsarsuaq - South Greenland
30 June - 18 September 2010
South Greenland is a region full of contrasts, known for its
flowering plains and the fertile valleys,
ice-filled fjords, numerous glaciers and mineral-rich mountain landscapes. The region has a well-developed
farming industry with extensive grazing pastures for sheep and horses and some of the
best-preserved Norse ruins. Whether you are interested in Inuit or Norse history, ice or minerals of all types, hunting and fishing or just magnificent scenery, then
South Greenland has it all.
The towns of
Narsaq, Qaqortoq, Nanortalik and the gateway of
Narsarsuaq are particularly good starting points from which to experience the culture and nature of the region. however, the small sheep-holding stations and settlements such as
Qassiarsuk, Igaliku and
Alluitsup Paa are also
popular tourist attractions. Excursions and attractions in South Greenland offer something for everyone:
Hiking, fishing, farm holidays and visits to the ruins of Norse churches and farms, or more challenging experiences such as
kayaking or climbing, to name but a few possibilities.
South Greenland's fjords are ideal for
sailing, and at the base of the fjords you will often find many
dramatic glaciers, which in some places can be experienced on foot. Several of the glaciers are particularly productive, and therefore a lot of
ice floes can be seen in South Greenland.
