Feeling small next those un-named peaks and surrounded by the calving face of the glacier.
The Flame mountain.
This is the direct translation of this beautiful peak near Kulusuk called Iparngaai. It comes from the old days when the fire to cook and heat up the space of each family would came from burning seal fat, making the shape of a wide flame 🔥.
Walking like normal on sea ice is beyond real.
Our guides went to Greenland in April for 2 weeks to scout winter opportunities for 2025!

A land full of exploration possibilities, East Greenland.
Scrambling through one of the oldest rocks on the planet.

"One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
Exploring wilderness of East Greenland might seem as remote as steps on the moon.
In winter time we look through our photos and miss views like this one.

The underworld.
Welcome to our cave. We named it the Blue whale and in summer 2023 it reached 200 meters in length.
A typical day of summer.
Sunny, no clouds and great times on the ice.
Here is our guide .dera0 taking care of his guests and heading towards the great view of the glacier face.
Every summer we offer a variety of activities beside the glacier day-trips doing ice caving and ice climbing trips.
Here are two iconic multi-day trips:
- Alpine Course is something we offer once per summer and focus its learnings on glacier travel, short roping and short pitching on rocky summits over 8 days course.
- If you want to join our most remote and wild trip then join our 11 days expedition. Its challenging and not for beginners. We will carry backpacks with all we need for approx 4 days at the time and explore 3 locations. Moving by boat and foot to climb un-named peaks, camp under the northern lights and not see anyone for 11 days except your team members of maximum 4 participants.
Write us if you think these are for you!
The ice cave!
Here are some special facts about our trip.
- This is the only ice cave tour in Greenland
- Our Lead Guide discovered it in 2016
- We are counting how many visitors we bring because we are the only operators of glacier day trips in East Greenland.
Hope you got convinced about joining this incredible adventure next summer! See you in East Greenland 🙌
Collecting water straight from the source!
When we plan our expeditions we need to make sure we will have a source of water everywhere we go. Usually we find streams, glacier ice or snow to melt. In this case the river was coming straight from under the glacier! Refreshing 💧
Thanks Georg for this picture! 📸
Would you try ice climbing in Greenland?
Thanks to for this incredible shot!

Bubbles of air as old as 2 million years!
Scientists have discovered that ice of Greenland is up to 2 millions years old and inside our cave as we are at the bottom of the glacier you look right up at the oldest ice! Incredible feeling to look into those bubbles and features…
