The mountains of Greenland offer some of the most exciting unclimbed, un-skiied terrain on Earth. Dominated by the Icecap, Greenland's mountains lie on the coastal fringe. Although there is much potential throughout Greenland, it is on the East Coast that the greatest concentration of inspiring, often untouched new-routeing lies. With a tiny population based in just two regions, the East Coast of Greenland is a definitive expedition area: Isolation, remoteness and the infrequent visits make a trip here an adventurous and challenging undertaking. The number of objectives and methods of reaching the areas can be as many as the regions themselves, but below is a generic guide to the possibilities.
Greenland Expedition Specialists operate an exciting range of Guided Mountaineering and skiing (ski touring) Expeditions, as well as providing all aspects of support for independent expeditions heading to Greenland.
Cape Farewell/Kap Farvel Region
The big walls of the southern tip of Greenland have received international attention for quite a number of years now. Favourably compared to the Patagonian spires and Trango Towers, the huge granite faces and pillars offer free climbing and aid routes to the highest standards.
