Qeqertarsuaq is a beautiful quaint town on Greenland's largest island. Here you will find amazing basalt formations, whales, and 250 different plant species. Dating back to 1773 this is one of Greenland’s oldest and smallest townships with just over 1,000 inhabitants. The town is surrounded by red basalt mountains on the south side of the island, plus whales love this corner of Disco Bay, especially the Greenland Whales which arrive in the area in the spring. When the Greenland Whales move on in June, the humpback whales arrive here for a summer vacation. There are also many hiking routes at several difficulty levels, and, above the town, lies the Lyngmark Glacier. (Qeqertarsuaq, Greenland)
