Top 10 Western Greenland Attractions You Must See
Uunartoq
How about a chilled glass of Chablis as you relax in a 38-degree warm spring while icebergs drift by in the nearby fjord?
You must bring the Chablis yourself, but the island of Uunartoq, with its hot springs in Southern Greenland, can provide the rest. At the place called Uunartoq – ‘The warm place’ in Greenlandic – you can rest in one of the wonders of nature. Here, on this small island, 38 degrees hot water comes up from the underground (Celcius which is 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit). While large icebergs are flowing by in the fjord next to the springs, you can sit, relax, and be happy that you decided to go into the water here instead of the lakes in nearby Qaqortoq or Nanortalik.
