Kapisillit - Day Tour

Visit this amazing place


This tour is for travellers who love the thrill of an exciting longer boat ride and the scenic wonders of Greenland

 

We start off with Qooqqut, a popular cabin area with a very popular restaurant(in the summer), it takes about an hour to get here, where we'll jump off the boat and walk up to some pine trees that were planted here a while ago.


From Qooqqut to Kapisillit it's about another hour and takes us through the eastern part of the Nuuk Fjord system. The mountains flanking the fjord are some of the oldest in the world and provide precious material for local artists. Take in the vastness of the fjord while keeping a lookout for whales, seals, and white-tailed eagles. This is Kapisillit Settlement Visit.


Upon arriving at Kapisillit you will be able to walk around the settlement and see the iconic church, with a spectacular view of the fiord. This is the place around 40 people call home every year.


Local school children are educated via Skype connection to Nuuk, and so they can maintain a high level of education even here.

 

If you want more time in Kapisillit you can book a transfer via Disko Line – and then spend some days in there.
