Spring begins in the middle of April, and it will no longer possible to ride on a dogsled at this time. On the other hand, it is easier to get around on foot. At this time of year you can experience some incredibly beautiful days.
If this sounds enticing, then Greenland Travel in Copenhagen has recently put together three excellent packages for a winter holiday in Greenland:
Adventure near the Ice Sheet
Greenland might not be the obvious destination for a ‘city break’, but here is something that gets pretty close: A long weekend break in Kangerlussuaq! A short, intense and reasonably-priced break in Greenland at a hostel with full-board. The country’s rich wildlife, dogsled trips, the Ice Sheet and other exciting activities await you.
Tour 9011 - prices from DKK 6,500
