Basalt Columns & Flora in Kuannit
In the heart of Qeqertarsuaq lies Kuannit, a hidden paradise awaiting exploration.
Join us for an unforgettable hiking adventure amidst its breathtaking landscapes. Here, towering basalt columns stand as silent guardians. These geological wonders, formed through the cooling and solidification of lava flows, provide a striking contrast to the vibrant plant life that thrives in this wilderness.
Named after the flourishing Angelica plant that blankets its terrain, Kuannit offers a taste of traditional Greenlandic culture. If your journey aligns with the Angelica growing season, enjoy this local delicacy, still used in Greenlandic cuisine today.
As you trek through the untamed wilderness, keep your camera and binoculars handy; you never know when a majestic whale might grace you with its presence.
The experienced guide will accompany you every step of the way, sharing insights into the region’s rich heritage and wildlife. So lace up your boots, breathe in the crisp Arctic air, and prepare to be enchanted by Kuannit’s raw beauty!
