Greenland

Greenland, also called Kalaallit Nunaat is the largest island in the world and more than half the residents of Greenland are Inuit. It’s untouched, harsh yet beautiful terrain is covered with snow and ice, consisting of magnificent glaciers, and deeply engraved fjords, offers the visitor a unique experience from summer cruises in the midnight sun, and whale watching to winter activities such as dog sledding and northern light viewing. The best season for viewing the northern lights in Greenland is between mid August and late March when the nights are long and the air is clear.

Greenland is part of the kingdom of Denmark, but is largely self-governed.
