In order to block your space, we are asking for a down payment of 2000 EUR before the trip starts. If you cancel, the full down payment will expire. We recommend you buy a travel insurance to cover these cancellation fees.

We recommend to buy an insurance from World Nomads (https://www.worldnomads.com). They cover biking, cancellation, rescue etc.

Although Greenland belongs to Denmark (EU) a passport is required for entry.

Kangerlussuaq

The climate in Kangerlussuaq is subarctic, bordering on polar continental, with the area receiving very little rainfall.

Sisimiut

Sisimiut lies within the polar climate region. The average temperature is 10 °C (50 °F) or lower throughout the year. The coldest months on average are February and March which have average highs of −10.2 °C (13.6 °F) and −10.1 °C (13.8 °F) respectively.

At night it gets down to -30 °C but the days are with around -10° to -15° C less cold. We prepare our clients perfectly for the journey. As a rule, you prepare for a bike trip like this as you would for a ski trip. At night we stay in dry, heated huts.

We won’t see any polar bears (unfortunately) on our tour, since the animals stay near the coast. But our dogsled guide carries a gun, just in case. And for fun.

No, we each carry only one daypack on our tours. Your large travel bag is transported for you onto the next night’s rest place.

No, we do not rent the bikes without an accompanied tour. We feel responsible for you and feel that travelling in Greenland without support is very irresponsible and dangerous.

Greenland is a very expensive place to travel. Therefore it does not make sense to organize the tour for small groups. The minimum size for a group is six. If your budget is not a problem, please get in touch with us anyway.

You will get a full list of suggested equipment upon booking the trip.

Yes, there is. We have a connection in Kangerlussuaq and then again in Sisimiut. We don’t have internet during the 4 days in between. Same for mobile phone access.

Yes, we have a first aid kit containing most common medications. Please bring your own personal medications as required.

The meals in Copenhagen cost around 30 to 50 EUR, a bit less for lunch in Kangerlussuaq. Around 300 EUR in cash should cover all your expenses during the trip.

There are shared bathrooms in Kangerlussuaq with hot showers. There are no showers during the Fatbike trip (don’t worry, we’ll all smell good together), until we arrive in Sisimiut on Day 8.

We eat in restaurants in Copenhagen, Kangerlussuaq and Sisimiut. On route, we bring all the food and our crew will cook for you. For breakfast we have coffee and tea, bread and butter, cereals and milk, meat and cheese. For the second (and longest) stage, we will provide a packed lunch. For the other stages, there will be snacks on the way. Hot tea, soup, energy bars, almonds and nuts, bread and sausage. We have pre-cooked dinner in the huts that we bring from a restaurant in Kagerlussuaq. There’s meat, rice, potatoes, vegetables etc. If you have any special meal requirements, you can let us know when signing up for the trip.

The first opportunity to wash your clothes is in Sisimiut. We suggest bringing enough clothes to avoid washing altogether. There is no need to change clothes during the biking trip itself.

We bring a generator that supplies enough energy for everyone to charge their batteries. Keep in mind that batteries die a lot faster in cold temperatures. Bring enough spare batteries with you.

We travel with two snowmobiles that also carry special wintersuits for each client. If we are suprised by a snow storm or need to rescue a client due to health conditions, we can always reach a town within 4 hours by snowmobile.

We try to find a room partner for you if you travel by yourself and don’t wish to have a single room. In this case, you will be sharing a twin room with someone of the same gender.

The longest stage is 60km/37mi. The other stages are anywhere between 19km/11mi and 37km/23mi. We have enough time during the day to cover these distances and we are not in a hurry. If you are cycling on a regular basis and if you are used to bike a couple of days in a row, you are ready for this trip.

We ride on flat surface most of the time, so technical level is not very demanding. We deflate our tires during the uphills and can always hike up if the ascent is too steep.
