THE JOURNEY

Picture
We start in Kangerlussuaq in the dramatic west coast fjords of Greenland, and ski 575km across the magical expanse of the Greenland ice cap, to finish on the east coast of Greenland in Isortoq, one of the world’s most remote and tiny Inuit villages. We will traverse a crevasse field before rising onto the ice cap after the first few days. Along the journey we will stop at an abandoned radar station. 

THE ENDURANCE

​

​I
t will be hard and it will be cold. You'll need to be in excellent physical condition. This is a long expedition needing stamina, patience and the mental fortitude to ski an average of 9 hours each day. The weather will test your resilience as we brave through temperatures between -40  to 0 degrees Celsius. We will ski with sleds carrying all our equipment and food for the entire expedition.

THE ACHIEVEMENT

Picture
Leaving behind the outside world and its many complexities, you will be reduced to simplicity on the ice cap. You will find a profound freedom and pureness in the singular purpose and uniqueness of polar ski travel. This will be a spiritual journey as much as a physical one. A journey that will bring you to the peak of your fitness, and leave you mentally stronger than ever before.


"Massive thanks to you for the biggest adventure of my life. I will      remember fondly. It was a pleasure to be on your team". 

Prokop, 2023
