Meet the friendly people who live here today, and discover their traditional way of life. The Inuit Hunting Culture In Greenland, hunting and fishing have been a crucial part of life for over 4,000 years. Throughout the generations, the Inuit people have created and refined unique products, including kayaks, harpoons, bird spears and high-quality clothing made of animal hide and fur. The fact that even compacted snow, in the form of an igloo, can be used as a temporary shelter demonstrates this culture's extraordinary ability to utilise materials found in nature.

4 The Itinerary This is an expedition where the elements rule, and the weather, wind and ice conditions will determine our schedule. Safety is paramount and the captain will decide the final sailing itinerary during the voyage. Hence, this itinerary is just an indication of what you can experience and why every expedition with Hurtigruten is unique. 6 August 2017 Departs From: Copenhagen, Denmark DAY 1 Your adventure begins Location: Copenhagen to Kangerlussuaq Your flight from Copenhagen lands in Kangerlussuaq in the evening. Kangerlussuaq is the main gateway to Greenland and a settlement in the Sisimiut community. Slightly less than 600 people live and work in Kangerlussuaq (the long fjord). The airport was built by the Americans during World War II and was
5 operative as an American base until Today, Kangerlussuaq is a commercial airport. The Kangerlussuaq dock is about 12 kilometres from the airport, and transport to the docks is by bus. There is no harbour in Kangerlussuaq that can accommodate MS Spitsbergen and therefore embarking the ship requires the use of the ship's smaller boats. At Kangerlussuaq Airport our Expedition Team will be at your disposal. It is advisable to bring rainproof jackets, trousers and mosquito repellent in your hand luggage to wear during the transfer to the MS Spitsbergen. DAY 2 Disko Bay Location: Sisimiut Sisimiut is the southernmost town on the western coast of Greenland. The main trade is fishing, and the town accommodates a large fleet of trawlers, a shipyard and a fish factory. It is set in rolling countryside and the town centre lies at the foot of a steep hill. We offer a variety of optional shore excursions here, including hikes, boat trips and sightseeing, as well as the chance to shop for local handicrafts and enjoy some Greenlandic specialities in a local restaurant.
6 DAY 3 The only town on the island of Disko Location: Qeqertarsuaq Qeqertarsuaq is the only town situated on the old volcanic island of Disko. The area offers amazing Arctic experiences. Join optional excursions such as a tour of the town, kayaking or an ice cruising boat tour. If you appreciate archaeology and history, you should definitely pay a visit to the local museum. Alternatively, you can stroll around the town on your own.
7 DAY 4 Heart-shaped mountains and mummies from Thule Location: Uummannaq The town of Uummannaq is situated in scenic surroundings at the foot of a heartshaped mountain. Our optional excursions include meeting the locals or taking a Polarcirkel boat to a landing at Qilakitsoq to see where the mummies from the Thule region were found.
8 DAY 5 Harsh conditions await Location: Davis Strait As we sail northwest along the Davis Straits towards the Lauge Koch coast, from 71 to 76 North, we pass some of the northernmost settlements in Greenland. In these harsh and remote areas, life is a constant battle against the elements, and you can learn more about this in one of the informative lectures given by our Expedition Team.
9 DAY 6 Colonised by Inuits Location: Qaanaaq (Thule) Qaanaaq (or Thule) was the first part of Greenland to be colonised by Inuits from the west and represents post Cold War. The district is one of the northernmost inhabited places on Earth and has a population of around 1,000. It is also the last US military base in Greenland with an interesting politcal history. Hunting for seals, whales and polar bears in the traditional way is the main occupation in the town and the surrounding settlements. Visit the Ultima Thule souvenir shop to buy genuine and original artwork and crafts from the Qaanaaq district.
10 DAY 7 Little sands Location: Siorapaluk Situated just 0.85 miles from the North Pole, Siorapaluk is the northernmost natural community in the world. The settlement was founded in 1933 and is known for its beautiful surroundings and geology. Siorapaluk means 'little sands' and was named after the small sandy beach in front of the village. This will be the northernmost landing on this trip, and you should not miss the opportunity to visit the church, museum or the local shop.
11 DAY 8 Along the ice edge Location: Greenland Sea We will spend a day cruising along the ice edge, and may even try to reach 80 North. While we are at sea, a series of lectures will be held on board on topics related to history and wildlife in the area.
12 DAY 9 The ruins of Mount Dundas Location: Dundas old Thule There is evidence of people living in the settlement now known as Dundas up to 900 years ago. Just north of Mount Dundas, there are a number of archaeological excavation sites, including Comer s Midden, where several ruins and rubbish heaps containing shells, animal bones and other refuse have been found. In 1910, the Danish explorer Knud Rasmussen founded a trade post here and in 1963, the area was officially designated as Thule, the 17 th municipality of Greenland and the northernmost community in the world. However, the town has since been abandoned, and you can wander around the old settlement, taking in the ruins of this trading post, or walk to the other side of the peninsula to see the remains of the old turf huts from the former settlement.
13 DAY 10 A day on deck Location: Greenland Sea Enjoy a day at sea where you can stay on deck to spot wildlife or attend a lecture given by our Expedition Team. DAY 11
14 Polar bears and seal skins Location: Upernavik For centuries, the locals have migrated to Upernavik during the spring to take advantage of the rich hunting grounds. This small settlement lies at 72 47' N and 56 10' W, in Melville Bay, and everything is within walking distance. Many of the locals still go hunting and fishing if you're walking through town keep an eye out for polar bear or seal skins! The town is also home to the world s northernmost open-air museum. DAY 12 Discover the Eqip Sermia Glacier Location: Eqip Sermia Today, you will have a unique opportunity to witness the true power of nature on a visit to the Eqip Sermia Glacier, which calves icebergs into the open ocean. We will use the ship s Polarcirkel boats to go ashore in this beautiful area. If you're feeling more active, you can take a short hike on your own in the area. Everybody who goes ashore is invited to a barbecue dinner with a terrific view over the glacier.
15 DAY 13 The Ilulissat Icefjord Location: Ilulissat Icebergs are called Ilulissat in Greenlandic, and it comes as no surprise to anyone who has been here that this is the town s name. This is the third largest town in Greenland with a population of about 5000, with the most important trades being fishing and tourism. Ilulissat is set in marvellous surroundings at Ilulissat Isfjord that in 2004 was inscribed to the UNESCO World Heritage List. Here, enormous icebergs run aground at the mouth of the fjord, just outside of town. They originate from the Jakobshavn Glacier, one of the most productive glaciers in the northern hemisphere. Ilulissat is the metropolitan centre of the Disko Bay area; this and the town's long-standing history will be the theme of the settlement visit. The conditions will decide if MS Spitsbergen will dock at the quayside in Ilulissat or shuttle with the PolarCirkel boats. Our Expedition team will be at your disposal at the points of interest, and we offer a variety of optional shore excursions such as hikes, historic town walks and a boat tour to the Icefjord.
16 DAY 14 Visit the 'Arctic Circle Village' Location: Itilleq In the early afternoon we reach the small settlement Itilleq. Itilleq means the hollow and was founded in 1847 on another island, but was later moved one kilometre east to its present location. The village is located about 50km south of Sisimiut in the head of the Itilleq Fjord. Around 130 people live here, who are mainly engaged in hunting and fishing. The island has no freshwater, and for this reason Itilleq makes use of a facility for forming freshwater from seawater. The church here has and interesting history: It was built in Thule (Umanak- North Greenland) in 1930 and was moved to Itilleq in As its name suggests, the village is situated in a hollow, majestically surrounded by high mountains and glaciers, and it can truthfully be called the Arctic Circle Village as the Arctic Circle is indeed found only 200 metres to the south.
17 DAY 15 The Arctic adventure comes to an end Location: Kangerlussuaq As we reach Kangerlussuaq, your expedition with MS Spitsbergen has come to an end. Take the opportunity to join a final excursion to the Greenland Ice Sheet. This vast icy wasteland stretches 1,500 miles north and reaches heights of up to 3,200 metres above sea level. The road to the edge of the Ice Sheet boasts beautiful natural scenery, ranging from Arctic desert and tundra with low growing shrubs to hilly terrain offering breathtaking views over the landscape. Your plane to Copenhagen leaves late in the evening.
18 DAY 16 Return to civilisation Location: Copenhagen You arrive in the Danish capital early in the morning and may even have the time to explore "Wonderful, Wonderful Copenhagen" before you head home. 20 August 2017 Location: Copenhagen, Denmark 130 B Jodhpur Park, Ground Floor, Kolkata W.B.INDIA info@expeditionvoyages.in ( / John: / Shanthini :
