Greenland is the world’s largest island of 810,810 square miles, which is the same as France, Great Britain, Germany, Italy, Austria and Belgium put together. It boasts the Northern Hemisphere’s largest ice sheet 694,981 square miles, which covers 85 percent of Greenlands total area. The Greenland climate is arctic to sub-arctic, but the distance between north and south means that there are tremendous differences in temperature and climate. Due to the dry air, the cool summers feel surprisingly comfortable. |

of ice whose monstrous glaciers launch icebergs into the sea to form magnificent
southern fjords.

Greenland is great if you are into dog sleighing or snow scooters. Big parts
of this big land are covered with snow all year round, and as a result sport
the worlds second largest glacial cap (after Antarctica) more than a kilometer
thick.

located in the Arctic region. It is home to the world’s largest national

rest of this island, however, is covered by immense and breathtaking glaciers.

the ice-free coasts. read more
