HIKING

Go hiking

From the Icefjord Centre you will find a boardwalk leading you to the spectacular World heritage site. The boardwalk will take you past the old settlement of Sermermiut which ends at the ice fjord close to “Kællingekløften”, where the blue trail starts. From the parking lot at the Icefjord Centre you can access the yellow and red hiking trail which together with the blue trail suggest more challenging and longer hikes than the boardwalk.
