A new adventure awaits

In early January, still in the mid-winter with limited sunlight, Alex will travel between the coastal Inuit communities of Sisimiut and Kangerlussuaq, the airstrip from where he'll fly back to Europe. This route is the famed 165km Arctic Circle Trail, considered by the few who attempt it on foot in the more benign summer to be one of the most challenging and stunning anywhere on Earth. Alex will make the journey in winter, when the valleys, mountains and lakes will be shrouded with snow and conditions are most demanding, and will only encounter another person in the unlikely event that a local Greenlander makes the journey by sled that early in the season.
