Hiking
Hiking around Qassiarsuk offers a rare opportunity to explore South Greenland’s dramatic and peaceful landscapes at your own pace.
Here, wide open valleys, rolling hills, and rugged mountains meet breathtaking views of fjords filled with drifting glacier ice from Sermilik Fjord and Qooroq Fjord.
This is a place where nature feels vast, untouched, and deeply calming – an experience that stays with you long after the hike is over.
A full-day hike between farms
One of the most memorable hiking routes in the area runs from Qassiarsuk via Nunataaq to Tasiusaq and back. This scenic route can be completed as a full-day hike of up to 22 km, depending on your pace and chosen route.
Along the way, you will enjoy:
-
Panoramic views of fjords and glaciers
-
Changing Arctic light reflecting off ice and water
-
A strong sense of space, silence, and remoteness
The landscape changes continuously, making every step part of a unique journey.
