Icebergs of Ilulissat
"Ilulissat" means Icebergs. It's because we have lots of them just outside the town. We, the locals, call this area for Iluliarsuit, a landscape of giants that is changing from day to day. Witness this amazing place with your own eyes and near histories about the area by a local guide.

Sermermiut Walk,
Our forefathers land
​
Sermermiut area is very important for the local people. We used to celebrate the Greenland National Day on 21st of June in the area. It also used to be a hunting place for grouse birds untill few years ago. The flora is still one of most important places for us, because of the black and blue berries in the summertime. The berries are the only natural fruits we have in Greenland.
