GREENLAND

Claiming the status of being the world’s largest island, Greenland assumes a prominent position as one of the best tourist places in Scandinavian countries. Scenic ice-clad bays and fjords add a magical charm to the place.

Greenland is home to the gorgeous Greenland ice sheet, the world’s largest ice sheet spreading over 2,000 kilometers. The behemoth ice-structure is flanked by the gorgeous Ilullisat Icefjord, a UNESCO Heritage Site that stretches to the Disko Bay. The island is also home to Scoresby Sund, the largest fjord system in the world, which is popularly regarded as one of the most stunning places to visit in Scandinavia.

While at the island, do make it a point to visit the Greenland National Park, with its thriving Arctic wilderness. Adventure lovers travelling to the island may also choose to try their hand at sledding, hiking, skiing and snowmobiling across the ice-capped slopes of Greenland. Boat cruises and water sports such as diving and kayaking are also extremely popular here.
