4The Arctic Circle Trail, Greenland

The Arctic Circle Trail in Greenland is a remote and challenging trek that tests your endurance and self-sufficiency. This 160-kilometer (100-mile) trail takes you through the wild and rugged wilderness of the Arctic, with no access to roads, shops, or facilities along the way. Hikers must be completely self-reliant, carrying all their supplies for the 10 to 12 days it takes to complete the trek. The physical challenge of hiking through rough, mountainous terrain is compounded by the mental challenge of solitude and isolation. The reward for those who complete the Arctic Circle Trail is the experience of pristine Arctic landscapes and the sense of achievement that comes with completing one of the world’s most remote treks.
