Hunting in Greenland is a wonderful Arctic experience. In the Spring only Musk Ox can be hunted. In the Fall a combination hunt for Musk Ox and Caribou is possible.
The outfitter has been conducting these hunts for a number of years and runs a very good operation. You will hunt with local Inuit guides who know the species and the land, and they will ensure that you have a safe and successful hunt. Unlike most winter Arctic hunts which are very physically demanding our hunts are conducted from ATVs and has been done by hunters of all ages and physical condition. Staying in a warm, cozy cabin and sleeping on proper beds also makes the hunt very bearable. Dressing in appropriate layers will ensure hunters stay warm on the hunt.
The Musk Ox in this area are typically 15% larger in body size when compared to Musk Ox found elsewhere as the forage is very good. Caribou in Greenland are classified as the Central Canada Barren Ground Caribou by Pope & Young.
Snow hare, arctic fox and ptarmigan can also be hunted. We do not offer any fishing.
Getting there:
The best way to get to Greenland is via Copenhagen, Denmark. For clients coming from North American you will need to arrive in Copenhagen and spend the night before taking your early morning flight the next day on Air Greenland to Kangerlussuaq. On your return journey you will also have to overnight in Copenhagen before taking your flight home the following day. We recommend spending a few days stay in Copenhagen either going to or coming back from Greenland as it is a beautiful European city and well worth seeing. Many of our clients arrange for their wives and non-hunting companions to meet up with them in Copenhagen turning it in to a nice family vacation.
