Greenland Evigheds Glacier
The Evigheds Glacier lies at the head of Evighedsfjorden (Eternity Fjord) in remote West Greenland, where glaciers flowing from the Maniitsoq Ice Cap meet a spectacular landscape of steep granite walls and deep blue water. The glacier is part of a largely uninhabited fjord system, with several glaciers descending into or above the fjord and creating an exceptionally wild Arctic setting.
Photography Tips
To get closer to the glacier and find wind free zone for a reflection, you would need to fly the drone. Make sure to not get too close since ice is quite unstable at the glacier and can easily hit the drone. Always only fly when permitted by AECO and the bridge.
Travel Information
The glacier is best reached by boat from Maniitsoq, roughly 140 km north of Nuuk. Local boat operators run excursions into Evighedsfjorden, while expedition cruises can also visit the glacier. The access is weather and ice-dependent.
