Set out on the East Greenland, Scoresby Sund, Including Long Hikes, a 9-night expedition that takes you deep into one of the most spectacular fjord systems on earth. Scoresby Sund, the world’s largest and longest fjord complex, is a place where sheer granite walls rise above iceberg-studded waters and silence carries the raw power of untouched wilderness.

This journey is designed for explorers who want to go further. Long guided hikes take you across tundra blanketed in autumn colors, past glacial valleys, and into landscapes where muskoxen graze and Arctic hares dart between rocky outcrops. Onshore, you’ll walk in the footsteps of ancient Inuit communities whose remnants whisper of resilience in one of the harshest environments imaginable.

By Zodiac, you’ll drift among cathedral-sized icebergs glowing blue in the shifting Arctic light, while seabirds wheel overhead and the occasional seal surfaces with curious eyes. Keep watch, too, for whales gliding along the fjord’s deep channels, their presence adding to the feeling that you’re part of something timeless.

Every day is about immersion: stepping onto shore, climbing ridges for panoramic views, and experiencing the stillness of a place very few will ever reach. With autumn skies painted in gold and the possibility of the Northern Lights flickering above, this expedition balances raw adventure with quiet wonder.
