Skjoldungen

Greenland

Skjoldungen is a large uninhabited island and sound on the southeast coast of Greenland, named by early 20th-century explorers. Its coast holds some of the region's most dramatic fjords and mountains. Expedition ships navigate the Skjoldungen fjord's towering granite walls, watch for polar bears, seals, and seabirds, see remnants of Inuit camps, and experience the raw, largely unvisited wilderness of the Ammassalik coast where mountains rise sheer from the ice-filled sea.
