Hike the Arctic Circle Trail, Greenland

Cam Honan hiked one of the world’s most remote hikes solo late summer of 2022.

At a Glance

Distance:  200 km (124 mi) – Including the 35 km/21.7 mi “Icecap” Extension (See Prologue)

Average Duration:  10 days (Cam took 6 days)

Difficulty Level:  Moderate

Start:  Kangerlussuaq or Point 660 (i.e., The edge of the Greenland Ice Sheet).

Finish:  Sisimiut

If everything goes right, the difficulty is moderate.

But you’d be out in the middle of nowhere if getting sick or injured. Prepare carefully if you have any interest in doing the best hike in Greenland.
