Kayaking in East Greenland

Kayaking in the Sirius Patrol backyard

Northeast Greenland National Park is pristine country for most. Therefore, we are also extra proud that we are after long-term planning, can finally put the ultimate kayaking up. A tour where we fly into to Daneborg, Sirius Patrol Headquarters. Here we put the kayaks in the water and drainage south, through the stunning scenery, we pass many areas where there are many kinds of birds, walruses, seals, musk oxen, etc. We will live in history from the Eskimos' many old settlements, remnants of World War II, and we may follow catch man huts throughout Towards Mestersvig, including visiting the Ella Island en route where Lauge Kock do surveys from Jørn Riel, was inspired by his tales.

A trip of about 400 km, where we must go on nature and weather terms, we must experience the magnificent scenery, wildlife and each other's company.

You will be allowed to work, make portaging with all our stuff, but this is a place few have been.

Therefore, we take pride in KTC and your adventure that option now is to show the National Park forward.

Something about the trip:

The tour is a unique adventure, you get the chance to experience ushering in life. Therefore, we also provide requirements for preparation, participation in the preliminary meeting, packaging, etc. But we promise you too a fairytale world.

Severity:

There is no reason to underestimate the physical challenge. It demands much of you as a person. Regular training and positive attitude needed to cope with several days in the kayak.
Your Adventure offers drafting of a physical preparation program towards departure.
Good humor and positive attitude are key words. Together we must prepare ourselves for what we can meet and prepare ourselves for a tough day. This is where group dynamics come into play. We get all bad days, but from experience we know that all is forgotten under the hot shower.

There is no requirement for specific kayaking evidence but it not a trip for the beginner in kayaking. It is an assessment of the wizards in your adventure, whether people are good enough.

Equipment:

KTC / Your Adventure stands for all common equipment, tents, primus, safety equipment, double folding kayaks, etc. We sail trimmers Double Kayaks, due to transportation of equipment, and due to safety and pace. We have many open junctions and nature can be violent, so your adventure / KTC weighs about security, so this election.

Furthermore, we seek to authorize the National Park and seek to obtain the required extended travel insurance which covers the collection of serious injury / illness, etc..

Trip preparation:

We spend much time in preparation for the trip. We emphasize education of participants and development of the group. As a participant you must be the most important skills before we get to Greenland, and be an active part of the group.
