Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers breathtaking panoramas of the mouth of the Scoresby Sund, the world's largest fjord system, often filled with colossal icebergs and expansive Arctic waters.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🌊

Scoresby Sund

Unrivaled views of the mouth of the world's largest and longest fjord system, Kangertittivaq.

🧊

Giant Icebergs

Massive icebergs frequently drift through these waters after breaking off from massive interior glaciers.

🏠

Kap Tobin

As the helicopter approaches the heliport, look for the small settlement area at the very southern tip of the land.

Since this is a very short helicopter transfer (approx. 15 minutes), have your camera ready immediately after take-off. The southern view over the Scoresby Sund is spectacular year-round; during late summer, the water is filled with giant icebergs that look like white sculptures against the deep blue water.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
πŸ”οΈ

Hurry Inlet

Looking north into the deep, narrow Kangerterajiva fjord surrounded by dramatic, desolate Arctic terrain.

❄️

Liverpool Land

The jagged, snow-capped mountain peaks of the eastern peninsula rising sharply from the dark sea waters.

πŸ—ΊοΈ

Arctic Tundra

The stark, beautiful landscape of Jameson Land stretching towards the interior of the Greenland ice sheet.

Watch for the sharp geological formations of the Liverpool Land peninsula. In the morning, the low Arctic sun illuminates the eastern cliffs, highlighting the deep shadows of the glacial valleys and frozen shorelines.
