Greenland's Great Outdoors

There are so many reasons to visit Greenland this time of year. There's the Aurora Borealis or northern lights that can be seen from anywhere in the country. There are fabulous hiking trails past fjords, glaciers and wide open spaces almost untouched by civilization. There's an icefjord in the town of Ilulissat (admitted onto UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2004) that's popular among scientists and media for studying global warming. And, of course, lets not forget the wildlife - muskox, whale safari's, reindeer, dog-sledding and even walruses. For a little reading pleasure on Greenland, check out my recently posted article on the western cities of Nuuk, Ilulissat and Kangerlussua on GoNomad.com. Thanks for reading.
