Its extremely remote location does not help, but this has helped foster a fascinating culture relatively free of outside interference, with Danish rule being the exception. This makes for a true bucket-list experience, as you can say you have been to one of the last true frontiers on earth.

Greenland contains an overwhelming amount of raw natural beauty, and nestled within these beautiful spots are some of the best heliskiing skiing spots on earth, with the epic views, lack of people and wide open spaces providing a near-perfect setting. There are no roads between settlements in Greenland, so flights or ferries are your only options for going between places. Some of the heliskiing skiing can be very challenging, so being very fit and in excellent shape before arriving will maximise enjoyment of the activity. The settlements in Greenland are full of intriguing histories and culture which they are very proud of, providing many hours of exploration and discovery, thus ensuring there is always something to see and do
