Greenland kayaking & hiking Expedition

During our trip, we will be resupplying bottled water with water from natural streams and using water bladders to store our water. This means that we will cut out the use of over 180 plastic bottles.

Greenland is very remote and despite being a huge landmass, it is only inhabited by 56,000 people. It still has basic facilities for treating waste and rubbish. Therefore, we have created our own method to dispose of our rubbish aiming to create a minimum impact on the environment. Among the documentation we will give you, are our rubbish and waste disposal instructions. It will cover everything from plastics and tins to toiletries. You will be asked to carry your own rubbish until such time we can dispose of it properly. Group rubbish, we take it in turns to carry.

Greenland has produced very strong people that have been able not only to live but also thrive in an environment which can be very challenging. Survival has always depended on what the environment has to give which means hunting from small animals to large mammals. Now a days, these traditions continue and are closely monitored with quotas. Tourism can have a very positive impact by demonstrating that wildlife is one of the key reasons for visiting Greenland. In this way, our tour contributes to encouraging the preservation of wildlife.

At the destination we by kayaks and take about 6 group taxis, so our carbon foot print is very small.
