Cecilia was a girl who lived with her family in Oqaatsut,
a small settlement north of Ilulissat. The story tells that
one night, Cecilia’s father was severely ill. In a desperate
call for getting help, Cecilia ran the 20 kilometers that
separate these two villages. In memory of Cecilia’s story,
this trail that goes from one village to the other has been
called after her.
We invite you to walk with us, accompanied by our local
guide, and take you through the fauna, flora and stories
of this untouched landscape: a bay full of blue icebergs,
rivers where fish run up for migration, Arctic flowers in
the middle of tundra fields, metamorphosed rocks
polished by the action of glaciers. Once in Oqaatsut we
settle down in our rooms and have a traditional dinner,
with free time to walk around the settlement.
Next day, after breakfast, we all meet to go out kayaking.
Our experienced and certified kayaking guides, modern
expedition equipment and safety protocols make it
possible for you to kayak in the beautiful surroundings
of Oqaatsut, full of nature and with a unique peaceful
atmosphere.
We then visit a family of the settlement and enjoy a
traditional lunch made with local ingredients. After our
lovely meal, we will be ready to head back by boat to
Ilulissat.
