VIA KULUSUK


START YOUR EAST GREENLAND ADVENTURE AT KULUSUK AIRPORT, ONE OF THE WORLD’S
SMALLEST INTERNATIONAL HUBS.

You’re sitting in a small fixed-wing plane on the way to East Greenland, passing
by the world’s largest fjord system filled with icebergs as big as high-rise
buildings. This is when you realise that you’re about to land in Kulusuk
International Airport.

That’s right, international. There’s curiously no cities or motorways visible,
no obvious signs of a metropolis that you would find if you flew towards larger
hubs like London Heathrow or Singapore Changi. You probably expected that
anyway, it’s part of the lure of Greenland.



> Land in Kulusuk International Airport. That’s right, international.

THE SMALLEST INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IN THE WORLD

Soon, you land. Kulusuk: it’s set on a small island by the edge of the ocean in
the middle of an archipelago at the mouth of an active fjord system. A mouthful,
but for the first timer all these ice-capped mountains, water and ice is also a
lot to take in.

It’s one of the smallest international airports in the world with only a gravel
landing strip, but the view still rivals the most magnificent of aviation
vistas. You are literally positioned right outside nature’s doorstep and ready
for adventure.

Kulusuk airport operates as the central hub for East Greenland. It takes in
visitors who arrive from Copenhagen, Nuuk and Reykjavik or are transferring by
helicopter to East Greenland’s largest town, Tasiilaq and other settlements.




KULUSUK, THE GATEWAY TO THE EAST

Many explorers use Kulusuk airport as a base to launch their activities. They
can be as extreme as crossing the Greenland Ice Sheet or as simple as hiking to
the closest settlement of the same name. You can begin hiking or sailing in the
summer under the Midnight Sun, or cross-country skiing, ski touring,
snowmobiling, and dog sledding activities in the winter.

The village life is also of cultural interest. The township of Kulusuk was
formerly one of the largest in the East Greenland area due to its plentiful
hunting and fishing grounds. In fact, Kulusuk’s one-word name means ‘breast of a
black guillemot’ bird, a type of game readily available in the area.

In the past 30 years, the community has decreased in numbers by forty percent,
leaving 250 inhabitants in the settlement. This does not mean there is less to
experience, but rather that you might need some time and an open mind to explore
the many layers of settlement life unfold at its own pace. Here strong drum
dancing and bone carving traditions, and attractions like the museum and church
offer a good dose of local culture.

One traveller said, “I visited Kulusuk in the winter. It was very relaxing – I
was there on weekdays, but everyday had a Sunday-feeling to it. There was no one
rushing about, having things to do”.

With the lack of artificial lights from a big city, Kulusuk is also a perfect
place to watch the starry night sky and the dance of the Northern Lights. The
longer you stay, the more you’ll feel the normal concept of time slip away –
especially with the advent of long summer and winter nights. Then you’ll really
begin to feel that you’re on a small island by the edge of the ocean in the
middle of an archipelago by…
